PURPOSE This prospective study evaluated the functional outcome and union rates of open distal femoral fractures managed with anatomic lateral locking plates. METHODS Thirty-four patients with open distal femur fractures with mean age of 40.8 years (range 20-65 years) were included in the study. Patients with Gustilo-Anderson grade IIIC fractures and those managed with non-locking modalities were excluded. In total, 70.6% (n = 24) of the fractures were Type IIIA and 55.9% (n = 19) were AO/OTA Type C3 fractures. In 23.5% (n = 8) patients, knee spanning external fixator was applied initially before definitive fixation. Patients were followed up for a mean period of 11.6 months (range 8-22.5 months). Functional outcome was evaluated using Sanders Score. RESULTS In the primary plating group, 69.2% (n = 18) fractures united at an average of 27 weeks (range 21-40 weeks), while eight patients had non-union and required bone grafting. All eight patients with external fixator underwent lateral locked plating with bone grafting and united at an average time of 39.6 weeks (range 31-50 weeks). There were two cases each of infection and screw failure. The final mean Sanders Score was 30.1 (range19-40) with 73.5% (n = 25) patients having good to excellent functional outcomes. CONCLUSIONS Lateral locking plates offer excellent stability to allow fracture union in open distal femoral fractures. A proactive approach to identify and manage potential healing difficulties is advisable to promote bone healing.

开放性股骨远端骨折的功能预后由侧向锁定板处理。

目的这项前瞻性研究评估了解剖性侧向锁定钢板治疗的股骨远端开放性骨折的功能结局和愈合率。方法本研究纳入了34例股骨远端开放性骨折,平均年龄40.8岁(范围20-65岁)的患者。排除Gustilo-Anderson IIIC级骨折和采用非锁定方式治疗的患者。总计,IIIA型骨折占70.6%(n = 24),AO / OTA C3型骨折占55.9%(n = 19)。在23.5%(n = 8)的患者中,在确定性固定之前先应用跨膝关节外固定架。对患者进行平均11.6个月的随访(8-22.5个月)。使用桑德斯评分评估功能结局。结果在初次电镀组中,为69。2%(n = 18)骨折平均合并27周(21-40周),而八名患者不愈合并需要植骨。所有八名外固定架的患者均接受了侧向锁定钢板植骨术,平均时间为39.6周(31-50周)。有两种情况,分别是感染和螺钉损坏。最终的平均Sanders评分为30.1(范围19-40),其中73.5%(n = 25)的患者具有良好或优异的功能预后。结论外侧锁定板具有出色的稳定性,可以在股骨远端开放性骨折中实现骨折愈合。为识别和管理潜在的治疗困难,应采取积极主动的方法来促进骨愈合。所有八名外固定架的患者均接受了侧向锁定钢板植骨术,平均时间为39.6周(31-50周)。有两种情况,分别是感染和螺钉损坏。最终的平均Sanders评分为30.1(范围19-40),其中73.5%(n = 25)的患者具有良好或优异的功能预后。结论外侧锁定板具有出色的稳定性,可以在股骨远端开放性骨折中实现骨折愈合。建议采用积极主动的方法来识别和管理潜在的愈合困难,以促进骨骼愈合。所有八名外固定架的患者均接受了侧向锁定钢板植骨术,平均时间为39.6周(31-50周)。有两种情况,分别是感染和螺钉损坏。最终的平均Sanders评分为30.1(范围19-40),其中73.5%(n = 25)的患者具有良好或优异的功能预后。结论外侧锁定板具有出色的稳定性,可以在股骨远端开放性骨折中实现骨折愈合。建议采用积极主动的方法来识别和管理潜在的愈合困难,以促进骨骼愈合。结论外侧锁定板具有出色的稳定性,可以在股骨远端开放性骨折中实现骨折愈合。为识别和管理潜在的治疗困难,应采取积极主动的方法来促进骨愈合。结论外侧锁定板具有出色的稳定性,可以在股骨远端开放性骨折中实现骨折愈合。建议采用积极主动的方法来识别和管理潜在的愈合困难,以促进骨骼愈合。
