[Reconstructive interventions following femoral fractures].
The complex and simple fractures seen in polytrauma patients after initial treatment sometimes show signs of poor setting and non-union with possible unfavourable functional consequences making reconstructive surgery necessary. In this report characteristic posttrauma problems and reconstructive surgery of the proximal femur, the femoral shaft and the distal femur are discussed. Possibilities other than prothesis or joint fusion, especially in the hip or knee joint, should be considered.
