Abstract
The Less Invasive Stabilization System (LISS) and titanium distal femoral locking compression plate (DF-LCP) was designed by the AO Group to combine the advantages of both interlocked intra-medullary nailing and biological plating techniques in one system. The stiffness of the construct is similar to a 95° condylar plate, dynamic condylar screw, or condylar buttress plate.
 We report a case of the DF-LCP and screw breakage. Early weight bearing and lack of callus consolidation precipitated failure of the implant. Non-weight bearing and early autologous bone grafting may be indicated in open distal femoral fractures.
