Case Results

A young man was struck by a company van on his way home from work when he was driving a motor scooter. Our client suffered life-changing injuries which included a highly comminuted open femur fracture and a highly comminuted distal radius fracture. The impact left our client with significant bone loss in his leg with post traumatic arthritis.
