title: Report on internal fixation of the femur.
abstract: During a recent survey of all cases involving fractures of the femur treated over a four-year period at the Ipswich General Hospital, it was found that a total of 78 were given operative treatment and had some form of metal fixation. This article will deal with these particular cases and summarize the treatment, time involvement and eventual rehabilitation, with consideration given to those which did not follow the general pattern, because of other complications.
