Cement augmentation of an angular stable plate osteosynthesis for supracondylar femoral fractures - biomechanical investigation of a new fixation device

Cement augmentation of an angular stable plate osteosynthesis for supracondylar femoral fractures - biomechanical investigation of a new fixation device

Abstract Background Implant anchorage in highly osteoporotic bone is challenging, since it often leads to osteosynthesis failure in geriatric patients with supracondylar femoral fractures. Cementation of screws is presumed to prevent such osteosynthesis failure. This study aimed to investigate the e...
