Variations in Greater Trochanter Height as a Relation to Patient Demographics: Implications for Femoral Nail Design

open access: yesAdvances in Orthopedics
Intramedullary nail fixation is the “gold standard” for surgical intervention of femoral fractures. While many aspects of nail design and patient anatomy have received specific focus, anatomic variations in proximal femoral geometry and greater ...

Intramedullary Fixation of Unstable Peritrochanteric Fractures with Interlocking Proximal Femoral Nail: A Prospective Analysis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
INTRODUCTION: In unstable trochanteric fractures where there is loss of posteromedial cortex continuity, when load is applied increased bending force on the DHS lead to implant breakage, screw cutout or separation of plate from shaft. This lead to the
