Abstract
The Less Invasive Stabilization System (LISS) is an internal fixator that can be inserted percutaneously by means of a minimally invasive surgical approach. This paper presents the use of this system exclusively in patients with AO33 distal femoral fractures, a group in which fracture management is often complicated by multiple trauma and soft-tissue damage.Keywords
