Augmentation of simultaneous acetabular and femoral neck fracture in osteogenesis imperfecta using photodynamic bone stabilization - A case report.

Background: Surgical fracture treatment in patients suffering from "osteogenesis imperfecta" (OI) is challenging and often results in unsatisfactory fixation of implants due to altered bone quality. Even the use of locking plates bears a residual risk to develop a loss of reduction leading to secondary fracture dislocation. However, the augmentation with an intramedullary photodynamic bone stabilization system (PBS) (e.
