Physical Rehabilitation Subsequent to Fixation of Ilizarov Ring Fixator for the Management of Distal Femur Fracture: A Case Report.

Curēus 2024 March
Distal femur fractures are severe all over the world. The goal of the study was to assess the effect of physiotherapy on ROM, strength, and improving quality of life. Due to the anatomy of distal femur fracture, the Ilizarov ring fixator is useful as it helps maintain mobility and stability. Distal femur fractures are most treated surgically compared to non-surgical treatment. The use of external fixators differs according to the patient's condition and the stability of the patient. This study's objective was to evaluate the effectiveness of an evidence-based procedure prepared for the management of distal femur fracture and chronic osteomyelitis femur. In some cases, due to discharging sinus, the patient requires long-term treatment followed by a home physiotherapy rehabilitation program. The objective was to assess the effects of Ilizarov circular external fixators (ICEF) on distal femur fracture.
