Summary

Proximal femoral replacement (PFR) with a locking plate effectively reconstructs massive femoral bone loss in elderly patients, preventing complications like loosening and fractures. This technique ensures robust fixation and allows early weight-bearing, leading to excellent long-term outcomes.

Fractures: Bone Repair

Treatment for a fracture is based on the type of break, the bone affected, and the patient's age.
Minor fractures with no bone displacement are treated by immobilizing the fractured bone using a cast or splint. However, in the case of fractures with displaced bones, the broken bones are repositioned before immobilization to ensure successful healing without deformation and loss of function. The realignment of fractured bone ends is performed through a process called reduction. If the procedure...
