Abstract:
The distal femoral fracture is a common type of osteoporotic fractures of lower extremities in the elderly. Because this kind of patients are mostly characterized by osteoporosis, comminuted fracture and poor general condition, the clinical treatment faces challenges. With the deepening understanding of this type of fracture and development of internal fixation devices and surgical techniques, more new treatment methods have been gradually applied. The authors retrieve and summarize the latest research progresses in surgical approaches, internal fixation and anti-osteoporosis drug therapy in recent years, in order to provide references for clinical treatment of senile osteoporotic distal femur fracture.
