A retrospective study was performed on fifty-three distal femoral displaced frac-tures in fifty-one patients who had been treated with a LinkDistal Femoral May Ana-tomical bone plate (DFAP). Fracture patterns, according to A-O classification, were type A in 41% (N=22), type B in 6% (N=3), and type C in 53% (N=28). Thirty-nine fractures (73.6%) were closed type; five (9.4%) were classified (Gustilo) as grade Ⅰ open fracture; seven (13.2%), as grade Ⅱopen fracture; and two (3.8%), as grade Ⅲ open fracture. Associated injuies were as follows : multiple fractures, 10 cases; head injury, 6 cases; abdominal trauma, 3cases, chest contusion, 2 cases; spinal injury, one case. The average time to fracture union was 4.4 months (range, three to ten months). The results from good to excellent were 85%. Mean follow-up was twenty-seven months. Complications were found in eleven patients (20.8%), including one non-union, two delayed union, two superficial wound infections, one deep wound infection,twoimplant failures and loss of knee motion (less than 90 degrees) in three cases. However, this plating system is one of the treatment choices for management of distal femoral fractures and could provide relatively good results.
