ABSTRACT

Periprosthetic fractures of the femur are sources of problems for the surgeon either in decision making or in technical execution. During this webinar, treatment guidelines for traumatic injuries and reconstruction techniques will be discussed based on different cases. The subdivision of institutional roles and experiences (trauma vs recon) may hide the best solution of these difficult fractures. The purpose of this webinar is to discuss and describe how to obtain the best solution for the patient.
