Abstract

Distal Femur fracture is one of the common fractures of the femur. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the functional outcome of Distal Femur fracture treated with MIPPO‐minimally invasive percutaneous plate osteo‐synthesis technique using locking compression plate. The study was conducted as descriptive cohort study among patients who present with distal femur fracture (Muller’s type A and C) willing for locking compression plate with MIPPO fixation in a tertiary care hospital over a period of 18 months. All the cases with closed fracture of distal femur Muller’s type A and C will be treated at a tertiary care hospital in Chengalpattu District. The method used for fracture fixation will be closed reduction and internal fixation with MIPPO with locking compression plate. Locking compression plate is a good fixation system for distal end femoral fractures particularly in type I and type III distal femoral fracture. The mean score of our subjects treated with MIPPO with locking compression plate was around 37.33 with the score of minimum 12 and maximum 48. Around 53% of our subject (16 subjects) had excellent scores, 30% (9 subjects) had good score, 10% (3 subjects) had moderate score and only 6% (2 subjects) had poor score. The mean score of our subjects treated with MIPPO with locking compression plate was around 37.33 with the score of minimum 12 and maximum 48. Around 53% of our subject (16 subjects) had excellent scores, 30% (9 subjects) had good score, 10% (3 subjects) had moderate score and only 6% (2 subjects) had poor score.
