Vertically unstable sacral fractures with neurological insult: outcomes of surgical decompression and reconstruction plate internal fixation.

abstract：PURPOSE:The optimum treatment for periprosthetic fractures in the region of the distal femur is undefined. Although internal fixation for prostheses which are stable is commonly utilised, this can lead to very prolonged morbidity and failure of the fracture to unite. Where the prosthesis is either loose or infected, re...
