Long-term effect of lower limb fractures A national register-based cohort study with a mean of 16.7 years follow-up
We showed that long-term patient-perceived complaints following lower limb fractures are common even decades after treatment. Most complaints were observed in high performance activities such as running, jumping and kneeling as well as QOL. More research is needed to address questions regarding causality.
