Who it is for
- • Acute periarticular or periprosthetic fractures
- • Open fractures requiring staged reconstruction
- • Non-union or malunion after previous fixation
- • Hospital-to-hospital tertiary trauma transfer
Treatment of high-energy intra-articular fractures, open injuries, periarticular disruptions, and established non-unions or malunions. Rigid internal fixation uses anatomically contoured titanium locking compression plates (LCP) and minimally invasive plate osteosynthesis (MIPO).
Surgical approach
- • Damage-control then definitive reconstruction as physiology allows
- • Anatomically contoured locking plates and MIPO where indicated
- • Restoration of articular surface and mechanical axis
- • Coordination with hospital trauma and ICU pathways
Recovery
- • Weight-bearing status is fracture-specific
- • Early physiotherapy to protect joint motion
- • Planned removal of metalwork only when clinically indicated
