Abstract:

BACKGROUND: Less Invasive Stabilisation System (LISS) plate can fix fractures microinvasively, reduce damage to the blood supply. LISS plate combined with bone allograft can improve the healing rate of fractures.
OBJECTIVE: To observe the effects of LISS locking plate fixation and bone allograft on distal femur fractures.
METHODS: Seventy-three patients received LISS locking plate fixation and bone allograft for treatment of comminuted fracture of the distal femur from 2009 to 2010, including 47 males and 26 females, aged 32-76 years. Sixty-one cases suffered from traffic accident, 9 suffered from falls, and 3 suffered from other reasons. There were 57 cases of blunt injury and 16 of open injury. According to AO typing, there were 19 of type A, 13 of type B, and 41 of type C.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: Based on the Kolment evaluation standards, the effects were excellent in 27 cases, good in 39 cases, and poor in 4 cases. The excellent and good rate was 90.4%. The LISS locking plate fixation plus bone allograft is good for treatment of distal femur fractures.
