Popis: |
Anatomopathologic study of fractures of lower end of femur in 87 patients demonstrated the frequency of compound lesions in adults, epiphyseal detachment being the most common finding in children. Therapy used resulted in consolidation within a mean period of 4 months. Anatomic results were satisfactory in 87% of cases, 2 of 3 patients recuperating a knee compatible with a normal active life. Complications were rare. The current therapeutic attitude in adults is resolutely surgical, particularly in case of an intra-articular fracture line. In children, treatment remains orthopedic, except for epiphyseal detachments when minimal fixation allows perfect anatomic reduction and avoids secondary growth disorders. |
