Trauma Case Reports, 2022 Femoral reverse oblique intertrochanteric fractures are successfully treated using intramedullary devices. Poor fracture reduction and the use of the inaproppriate implant can lead to implant failure and subsequent malunion or non-union.We present the ...

Comminuted Intertrochanteric Fracture of the Femoral Neck [PDF]
Acta Orthopaedica Scandinavica, 1975 If comminuted intertrochanteric fractures of the femoral neck are treated in the same way as the simple ones--by reduction, McLaughlin nailing, and early weightbearing--many complications will occur, in most cases failure of the osteosynthesis or infection. If operation is to be used at all in these fractures, it must take the form of a firmer fixation

Modified Pauwels’ Intertrochanteric Osteotomy in Neglected Femoral Neck Fracture [PDF]
Clinical Orthopaedics and Related Research, 2009 Many reported treatment methods for neglected femoral neck fractures do not always satisfactorily address nonunion, coxa vara, and limb shortening. We retrospectively reviewed the functional outcome of the modified Pauwels' intertrochanteric osteotomy in 48 adults (mean age, 48.1 years) to determine whether this approach would correct those problems ...

Gait biomechanics after proximal femoral nailing of intertrochanteric fractures
Journal of Orthopaedic Research, 2022 AbstractProximal femur fractures in the elderly are associated with significant loss of independence, mobility, and quality of life. This prospective study aimed to: (1) investigate gait biomechanics in intertrochanteric fracture (ITF) patients (A1 and A2 AO/OTA) managed via femoral nailing at 6 weeks and 6 months postoperative and how these compared ...

Morphometric and Paleobiological Insights Into Pleistocene Sicilian Wolf Populations
Acta Zoologica, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The Pleistocene wolves (Canis lupus) from Sicily represent one of the few known insular populations of this species from that time period. Despite their potential relevance for understanding carnivore adaptations in insular contexts, no dedicated study has previously investigated their morphology and evolutionary significance.

Journal of the American Geriatrics Society, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Background Peripheral nerve blocks (PNBs) are increasingly recommended as analgesia for hip fractures. Their association with outcomes beyond the immediate pharmacological effects remains unclear. This study examined the association between the use of PNBs and the number of days alive and at home after hip fracture surgery among Medicare ...

Treatment Trade‐Offs and Choices for Femoral Fractures: A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis
Orthopaedic Surgery, Volume 17, Issue 5, Page 1298-1313, May 2025.This review examines the trade‐offs between surgical intervention and traction therapy for adult and elderly patients with femoral fractures and surgical contraindications, particularly in resource‐limited settings. While intramedullary nailing may offer better clinical outcomes, traction therapy is often preferred due to limited surgical resources ...

Medical Cost Analysis of the Osteoporotic Hip Fractures
Türk Osteoporoz Dergisi, 2015 Objective: Osteoporotic hip fractures decrease the life expectancy for 20% about 20-50% of the patients become permanently dependent in terms of walking for the rest of their life. Life expectancy is increasing in Turkey in the last 20 years.
