Comparison of Three Internal Fixation Constructs for AO/OTA 33-A3 Distal Femoral Fractures: A Biomechanical Study
The biomechanical strength of the RTN combined with a plate is higher than that of the RFN combined with plate and dual-plate constructs, which can be used as an internal fixation option for the treatment of comminuted distal femoral fractures.
