Abstract
The aim of this study is to report our experience on concomitant ipsilateral proximal tibia lateral condyle and femoral Hoffa fractures. Patient presented to our Trauma and emergency room with an ipsilateral proximal tibia lateral condyle split-Schatzger Type-I fracture and femoral lateral condyle Hoffa fracture, followingroad traffic accident. Both were closed fracture. Duration of follow-up was 18 months. At final follow-up, both the fractures united. The Knee society score was 79. ROM at knee joint was117°{3o-120°}.Our results prove that in this combination of intraarticular fractures, proper anatomic reduction and rigid internal fixation followed by early mobilization lead to good results.
