Abstract:
[Objective]To investigate the morbidity,classification and treatment of multiple fracture around the knee in adults,and to analyze the significance of AO classification in the treatment.[Method]Multiple fractures in 167 patients from 2003 to 2007 were retrospectively analyzed and grouped according to their ages,occurring years,mechanism of injury and treatment.AO/OTA classification was assessed from the preoperative X-ray result,and healing situation was evaluated according to postoperative X-ray.[Result]All 167 multiple fractures around the knee accounted 23.69% for all lower limb fractures,with 89.2% of male and 10.8 of female.For the patient's age analysis,30-40 years old age group accounted for the largest proportion (29.34%).For the injury mechanism,traffic accident accounted for the largest proportion (53.29%).Distal femur + proximal tibia fracture accounted for 44.3%.patella + distal femur fracture accounted for 31.1%.Proximal tibia + patella accounted for 19.8%.Distal femur + proximal tibia + patella accounted for 4.8%.According to AO classification,A3 fracture was the most common in distal femoral fracture group (25.4%).B1 fracture was the most common in proximal tibia fracture group (21.7).C3 fracture was the most common in patella fracture (31.2).Tthe final good-to-excellent rate was 85.63%.[Conclusion]Distal femoral fracture combined with proximal tibia fracture was the most common in multiple fractures around the knee.The common fracture type is supracondylar fracture in femur,transverse patella and tibia.Application of nail,plate,wire and tension band,et al.can achieve good fixation.
