A Condylar Fracture refers to a fracture involving the rounded articular surface at the end of a long bone, typically occurring in joints such as the knee or the temporomandibular joint (TMJ) in the jaw. In orthopaedics, the term is often associated with fractures of the distal femur or proximal tibia in the knee joint. Condylar Fractures can result from traumatic events, such as car accidents or falls, and are classified based on the specific joint involved. In the knee, distal femur Condylar Fractures or proximal tibia Condylar Fractures may occur, disrupting the joint's normal function. Treatment depends on the severity and displacement of the fracture. Options range from conservative measures, such as immobilization and physical therapy, to surgical interventions, including open reduction and internal fixation. Comprehensive understanding and accurate diagnosis of Condylar Fractures are crucial in orthopaedics for determining the most appropriate treatment plan. Rehabilitation following treatment is essential to restore joint function and prevent long-term complications.
