Displaced fractures of the distal femur in elderly patients. Operative versus non-operative treatment.

M S Butt1, S J Krikler, M S Ali.   

Abstract

We performed a prospective, randomised controlled trial of the operative versus non-operative treatment of 42 displaced fractures of the distal femur in elderly patients. Excellent or good results were achieved in 53% of the operated group and in 31% of the non-operated group. There were more complications in the latter, and the time to discharge was considerably longer.
