Peri‐implant proximal femur fracture in a poliomyelitis survivor: A surgical and medical challenge

KEY CLINICAL MESSAGE: The treatment of long bone fractures in post‐polio survivors is indubitably an exacting task. Out of this complicated case presented in this paper, it can be deduced that it is attainable to repair a peri‐implant subtrochanteric refracture or a complex non‐union of the proximal...

description KEY CLINICAL MESSAGE: The treatment of long bone fractures in post‐polio survivors is indubitably an exacting task. Out of this complicated case presented in this paper, it can be deduced that it is attainable to repair a peri‐implant subtrochanteric refracture or a complex non‐union of the proximal femur with plate and screws with grafting. ABSTRACT: Post‐polio survivors are prone to low‐energy bone fractures. The management of such cases is exigent, as no literature data indicate the best surgical approach. This paper presents an intricate peri‐implant proximal femoral fracture in a polio survivor treated in our institution and accentuates the various challenges we encountered.
