Prediction of fracture nonunion leading to secondary surgery in patients with distal femur fractures

Prediction of fracture nonunion leading to secondary surgery in patients with distal femur fractures

Aims: Several previously identified patient-, injury-, and treatment-related factors are associated with the development of nonunion in distal femur fractures. However, the predictive value of these factors is not well defined. We aimed to assess the predictive ability of previously identified risk...
