MIPO using a LCP achieves favourable biological fixation for distal femoral fractures with few complications. Bone grafting is not needed even in cases of metaphyseal comminution. Proper patient selection and preoperative planning are essential to prevent complications.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
