About This Trial
The purpose of this randomized clinical trial is to decrease non-union rates in distal femur fracture fixation. Carbo-fix lateral femur plate and standard intramedullary nail-plate constructs have been shown to have lower non-union rates. With decreased non-union rates, re-operation rates will decrease, leading to improved patient outcomes and clinical care. This study will randomize patients to o…
