Femoral condyle fracture

Femoral condyle fractures accounted for 0.4% of systemic fractures, but their efficacy was not satisfactory. Around the femoral condyles there are joint capsules, ligaments, muscles and tendons attached. Fractured by these tissues, it is not easy to maintain or maintain reduction. Femoral condyle fractures can be accompanied by extensive damage to the iliac arteries, nerves, and surrounding soft tissues. Injuries with adjacent support structures such as lateral collateral ligaments and cruciate ligaments can cause knee joint instability, and also lead to adhesion of the knee extension devices due to injuries to the quadriceps and supracondyle, and impair knee function. Fractures can cause the destruction of the corresponding joints between the femoral condyle and tibial plateau, the patella and the femoral articular surface, changing the normal anatomical axis and mechanical axis of the normal knee, and disrupting the normal load and conduction of the knee joint. Femoral condyle fractures are prone to bone mass separation without collapse, and are prone to ldquo; Trdquo; or ldquo; Yrdquo; fractures. Femoral condyle fractures include: femoral intercondylar fractures, internal or external condylar fractures, internal and external condylar fractures, and comminuted fractures. The treatment of the fracture site varies depending on the location and type of fracture, and the prognosis also varies widely.
