High Failure Rates of Locking Compression Plate Osteosynthesis with Transverse Fracture around a Well-Fixed Stem Tip for Periprosthetic Femoral Fracture

This study investigated the incidence of failure after locking compression plate (LCP) osteosynthesis around a well-fixed stem of periprosthetic femoral fractures (PFFs). We retrospectively evaluated outcomes of 63 Vancouver type B1 and C PFFs treated with LCP between May 2001 and February 2018. The...
