Demographics, Fracture Characteristics, and Treatment Strategies of Periprosthetic Distal Femur Fractures Compared to Native Distal Femur Fractures

Abstract

There is a lack of literature that provides clinical comparisons between periprosthetic distal femur fractures (PDFF) and native distal femur fractures (NDFF), as well as the populations affected. Objective: Analyze the demographics, fracture characteristics, and treatment strategies associated with periprosthetic distal femur fractures (PDFF) compared to native distal femur fractures (NDFF).
