El–Sayed Khalil A et al. – Use of this modified highly invasive approach facilitated anatomical reconstruction of C3–type complex distal femoral fractures with lower expected complication rate and acceptable clinical outcome, especially offering good reconstruction of the suprapatellar pouch area. It can be considered as a standby solution for managing these difficult injuries.
