Prospective study on functional outcome of distal femur fracture treated by open reduction and internal fixation using distal femur locking plate in Tibebe Ghion Specialized Hospital, Bahirdar, North West Ethiopia

Closed fracture and regular follow up were determining factors for better functional outcomes. Closed fractures preserve the biological environment, which facilitates early fracture healing. The regular follow up helped patients to assess their rehabilitation status and pick any complication early.
