| Abstrakt: | Summary: Distal femur fractures are often treated with laterally based plate constructs. The use of medial plates is less common because of the concern for the proximity to vascular structures. With a solid understanding of the anatomy, the technique can be used more frequently to optimize fixation in medial distal femur fractures and osteoporotic, comminuted, bone loss, and periprosthetic fractures. This video demonstrates a safe technique for the medial submuscular plating of a distal femur fracture. The video covers indications for surgery and provides detailed anatomy of the structures at risk, especially the superficial femoral artery system.
