periprosthetic fracture post tkr


Th e problems  here are
 1. Osteoporotic bone 2. Short distal  fragment 3. Inappropriate  plate

 My options
 Would include a supra condylar plate augmented with  locking plate.below is a comparable bilateral case in an 89 year old.  The displacement  in the  coronal and saggital axis can be easily controlled by the intra medullary devise and augmented by the locking plate done by a mis technique.
