Fractures of the posterior condyles of the femur

Abstract

Fractures of the posterior femoral condyles are relatively rare. Over the past 20 years, we have observed 15 patients with such injuries - 9 men and 6 women aged 18 to 92 years (average age 54 years). In 7 people, the injury was associated with a collision with a car, 2 fell from a small height on straightened legs, 1 patient fell on the stairs, the remaining 5 patients were injured when falling on a slippery road or at home on a wet floor
