Polytrauma remains a major social, economic and medicine affliction. Successful surgical treatment of polytrauma patient?s requires an approach predicated on prioritizing injuries. An isolated fractures rarely poses any threat but in association with multiple injuries, a fractures assumes greater significance. Proper management of femur fractures in polytrauma can greatly reduce the mortality and morbidity. In this work the results of the operative treatments of the femoral shaft fractures in polytrauma patients using Mitkovic type internal fixator (14 patients) and Kuntscher nail (9 patients) are compared. The average patients age was 28.43 years (range 16 to 61). Internal fixation using Mitkovic type internal fixator can be method of choose in treatment of femur fractures in polytrauma patient?s. Its application is relatively simple. It doesn?t damage the periosteal and meduullary bone vascularization, which favors osteosynthesis and provides considerable contribution in osteogensis. .
