Cruciate fracture of the distal femur: the double Hoffa fracture.

We describe a comminuted intercondylar fracture of the distal femur that was associated with a coronal split of both condyles, essentially double Hoffa fractures. Initially poorly treated, revisional reconstruction with small fragment screw fixation and the LISS-DF device was performed. The patient regained active knee ROM from 10 to 100° and the fracture had healed after 8 weeks.
