| Popis: | Background: The lack of knee flexion represents a possible complication in severe femur fractures. In 1956, Judet proposed a quadricepsplasty technique that allowed for a graded release without the disruption of the vastus medialis obliqus, vastus lateralis, or rectus femoris. Methods: This article reports the clinical outcome of 21 cases of Judet quadricepsplasty after an average follow-up of 101.0 months (range, 21-204 months). The definitive flexion gain was classified as excellent, good, fair, or poor. Excellent when >100 degrees, good when >80 50 degrees |
