Title: Osteochondral fracture of the distal lateral femoral condyle: a report of two cases. Author: Taitsman LA, Frank JB, Mills WJ, Barei DP, Nork SE. Journal: J Orthop Trauma; 2006 May; 20(5):358-62. PubMed ID: 16766941. Abstract: Osteochondral fractures of the lateral femoral condyle are uncommon injuries. These fractures often are misdiagnosed, and the majority of the cases reported have been managed with surgical excision. We present 2 cases of osteochondral fractures of the lateral femoral condyle. Both patients were treated with open reduction internal fixation of their fractures. A lateral approach to the posterolateral aspect of the distal femur is described.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
