Distal femoral fracture cases. a X-ray of a distal femoral fracture after locked plating in anteroposterior projection; construct failure due to screw loosening and secondary loss of reduction is apparent. b X-ray of a distal femoral fracture treated with double plating to increase construct stability. c X-ray of a severe osteoporotic distal femoral fracture with locked plating and screw augmentation to enhance implant anchorage and construct stability
