Summary

This trial aimed to provide Level I evidence on the comparative effectiveness, safety, and functional outcomes of single versus double plating for distal femoral fractures.

Conditions

  • Single Lateral Plate
  • Double Plating
  • Fixation
  • Distal Femoral Fractures

Interventions

PROCEDURE

Single lateral distal femoral locking compression plate

Patients underwent open Reduction and Internal Fixation (ORIF) using a single pre-contoured lateral distal femoral locking compression plate via a standard lateral approach.

PROCEDURE

Double Plating

Patients underwent open Reduction and Internal Fixation (ORIF) using a lateral distal femoral locking plate combined with a medial buttress plate (3.5mm reconstruction plate) via an anterolateral approach with subvastus medial dissection.
