AbstractAbstract PDF
Generally, lateral plating is used for a comminuted fracture of the distal femur. However, in some cases, it has been shown that using a medial plate is necessary to achieve better outcome. Nevertheless, there are no available anatomical plates that fit either the distal medial femoral condyle or fracture fixation, except for the relatively short plate developed for distal femoral osteotomy. We found that locking compression plate-proximal lateral tibia (LCP-PLT) fits anatomically well for the contour of the ipsilateral medial femoral condyle. Moreover, LCP-PLT has less risk of breaking the thread holes since it rarely needs to be bent. We report a plastic bone model study and two cases of distal femoral fractures fixed with medial plating using LCP-PLT.

Morbidity and Mortality of the Elderly after Early Operation for Trochanteric Fractures
Se Ang Jang, Young Ho Cho, Young Soo Byun, Ki Hong Park, Hyun Seong Yoo, Chul Jung
J Korean Fract Soc 2013;26(3):199-204.   Published online July 31, 2013
DOI: https://doi.org/10.12671/jkfs.2013.26.3.199
AbstractAbstract PDF
PURPOSE
To find out the effect of early closed reduction and internal fixation (within 24 hours after admission to hospital) on the morbidity and mortality in the elderly with intertrochanteric fractures of the femur.
MATERIALS AND METHODS
Retrospectively, we analyzed 99 patients with intertrochanteric fracture of the femur who underwent surgery from January, 2009 to December, 2010. We reviewed 89 of the 99 patients and checked for early complications and reviewed the mortality rates 3 months, 6 months and 1 year after surgery. There were 24 males and 65 females. The average age was 79.8 years (61-99 years). According to the American Society of Anesthesiologists classification, 25 patients were class 1, 37 patients were class 2, 26 patients were class 3, and 1 patient was class 4. All patients were operated on by one surgeon, who was skilled in inserting intramedullary nail.
RESULTS
The average surgical time was 43 minutes and the average intraoperative blood loss was 165 ml. Sixteen patients experienced delirium but all of them recovered. One patient had pneumonia at one month after surgery. Pressure sores developed in one patient but improved with conservative treatment. Pulmonary thromboembolism developed in some patients one month after surgery. Three patients (3.4%) died within three months and one patient (1.1%) died between three and six months after surgery, but no patient died between six months and one year after surgery.
CONCLUSION
If patients are optimized for the operation, early internal fixation of trochanteric fracture in elderly patients after arrival at the hospital should be considered to reduce early complications and mortality.

Bleeding Volume after Surgery for Trochanteric Fractures of the Femur in Patients Treated with Antiplatelet Agents: Comparison according to Surgical Timing
Se Ang Jang, Young Ho Cho, Young Soo Byun, Tae Gyun Kim, Hun Sik Cho, Sung Choi
J Korean Fract Soc 2012;25(2):105-109.   Published online April 30, 2012
DOI: https://doi.org/10.12671/jkfs.2012.25.2.105
AbstractAbstract PDF
PURPOSE
We evaluated the bleeding volume after surgery for trochanteric fractures of the femur in patients treated with antiplatelet agents according to surgical timing.
MATERIALS AND METHODS
We selected 20 patients who had trochanteric fractures of the femur treated with antiplatelet agents from January 2009 to June 2010. Group I included 9 patients who discontinued antiplatelet medication and had delayed operations at an average of 6.5 days and Group II included 11 patients who underwent early operations within 24 hours. Group I included 2 males and 7 females; their average age was 77.8 years (range 59~86). Group II included 4 males and 7 females, with an average age of 73.5 years (range 61~84). We compared the two groups' volume of intraoperative bleeding, the preoperative and postoperative hemoglobin levels and the volume of postoperative transfusion. The Mann-Whitney U test was used for statistical analysis.
RESULTS
The volume of intraoperative bleeding was 88 ml in group I and 106 ml in group II (p>0.01). The difference in the hemoglobin was a decrease of 2.4 mg% in group I and a decrease of 2.2 mg% in group II (p>0.01). The volume of postoperative transfusion was 0.6 pints in group I and 1 pint in group II (p>0.01).
CONCLUSION
We found a similar bleeding volume regardless of operative timing after surgery for trochanteric fractures of the femur in patients treated with antiplatelet agents.
