Background: To evaluate the functional outcome of locking compression plate for fractures around knee joint (Distal 1/3rd femur or proximal 1/3rd tibia)
Methods: This prospective functional out-come study has been conducted on This prospective study has been conducted on 50 patients with Distal 1/3rd femur and 50 patients with proximal 1/3rd tibia
Results: According to Modified Mehrotra’s Criteria, the excellent (44.00%) and fair (42.00%) and (14.00%) had poor result
Conclusion: Locking compression plate is the optimal tool for many supracondylar fractures of femur and proximal tibia fractures. It provides rigid fixation, where a widening canal, thin cortices and frequently poor bone stock make fixation difficult.
