- Opis:
- A 17-year-old paraplegic patient sustained a subtrochanteric femoral fracture due to inadequate trauma. The unusual anatomical conditions associated with his congenital paraplegia did not allow treatment with a standard intramedullary implant for the femur. Because his soft tissues were already compromised, alternative options like plate osteosynthesis were considered unfavourable as a salvage procedure. Therefore, we used an implant designed for the humerus. A satisfactory result of osteosynthesis was achieved despite varus deformity, shortening and rotational error.
