Presence of a nail in the medullary canal; is it enough to prevent femoral neck shortening in trochanteric fracture? [PDF]
Purpose Presence of a cephalomedullary nail (CMN) in the medullary canal has been thought as advantageous in the control of femoral neck shortening (FNS) and lag screw sliding in trochanteric fracture compared to extramedullary fixation system.
