Outcomes after Retrograde Intramedullary Nailing of 33C Femur Fractures
Listen to this summary
The authors aimed to evaluate the outcomes of patients with complete articular distal femur fractures treated with open reduction and retrograde intramedullary nailing. Their retrospective cohort study of 127 patients found a high osseous union rate of 99%, a reoperation rate of 15.4%, and maintained anatomical reductions, suggesting that this surgical technique is an effective treatment option for these fractures.
