Supracondylar Fracture In A Treated Case Of GCT

50 Years old man presented following a fall having sustained supracondylar fracture of the Femur.  He had GCT of the medial femoral condyle of the same side treated 20 years ago with currettage and bone cementing.

This fracture is treated with distal femoral locking plate. The fracture site is exposed through a straight lateral incision without anterior curvature in the distal end of the incision

The plate is positioned slightly proximal to avoid the cement. There are 5 locking screws distally.
