%X femoral distal fractures accounts for only the 6 % of all femoral ones. authors present the case of a male patient aged 42 suffered a road accident provoking a unicondylar fracture of femur distal end in coronal plane , known as hoffa fracture. surgical treatment by radiological studies is showed, where we used a screw of ao system. using this procedure we achieved the fracture reduction and stability. we conclude that an appropriate preoperative planning is necessary to get satisfactory results.
