STABILIZATION OF DISTAL FEMUR FRACTURES WITH INTRAMEDULLARY NAILS AND LOCKING PLATES: DIFFERENCES IN CALLUS FORMATION

OBJECTIVES: This study compared callus formation in distal femur fractures stabilized with locking plates and intramedullary nails to test the hypothesis that locking plates induce less fracture callus than IM nails. DESIGN: Retrospective case matched study. SETTING: Two orthopaedic trauma centers....
