title: [Recent injuries of the femoral condyles (author's transl)].
abstract: The results of a multicenter study comprising 210 operated distal femoral fractures are reported and conclusions for the technique of internal fixation are outlined: After discussion of some details in osteosynthesis of easy supracondylar and condylar fractures, the stabilization of comminuted supracondylar fractures is described. The special steps in reconstruction of comminuted condyles are reported exactly, and the use of the condyle buttress plate is recommended.
