Management Of Subtrochanteric Femoral Fractures Using Proximal Femoral Nail [PDF]

, 2022
Background: Fractures of the proximal femur are a big challenge in traumatology. Rapid strides in implant and instrumentations in quest of ideal fixation of subtrochanteric femoral fractures have made various options available.

Outcome of Proximal Femoral Nail Antirotation II fixation of Peritrochanteric Fracture of Femur

Journal of Nepal Health Research Council, 2020
Background: Intramedullary fixation is biomechanically superior to extramedullary fixation for fracture of peritrochanteric region of femur in elderly which is often complicated due to associated osteoporosis.

Comparative Study of Unstable Proximal Femoral Fractures Treated with Proximal Femoral Nail (PFN) and Proximal Femoral Nail Anti-Rotation (PFNA)

, 2023
Background: Hip joint fractures are quite common in old age due to degeneration of the calcarfemorale, which is a nail inserted by nature. It cannot be healed early; hence, it needs proper technique to maintain the normal functions of the hip joint. Method: Out of 30 patients aged between 50 to 70 years, 15 were inserted with proximal femoral nail (PFN)

Performance of the resurfaced hip. Part 2: the influence of prosthesis stem design on remodelling and fracture of the femoral neck [PDF]

, 2010
Hip resurfacing is a popular treatment for osteoarthritis in young, active patients. Previous studies have shown that occasional failures – femoral neck fracture and implant loosening, possibly associated with bone adaptation – are affected by prosthesis

Femoral elongation using distraction osteogenesis: Is it possible in patients with a previous massive femoral bone allograft?

Journal of Orthopaedic Reports
Background: Primary bone sarcomas in children frequently involve the distal femur, and limb-salvage resection often results in loss of the distal femoral physis, leading to progressive limb-length discrepancy (LLD). Biological reconstruction with massive

Correlation Between Anthropometric Measurements and Intramedullary Nail Length in Patients with Femoral Fracture: A Cross-sectional Study [PDF]

Journal of Clinical and Diagnostic Research
Introduction: Intramedullary (IM) nailing is the gold standard treatment for femoral shaft fractures. Selecting the optimal IM nail length is crucial for ensuring proper alignment and minimising complications. Aim: To explore the relationship between

Intertrochanteric Femoral Fractures: A Comparison of Clinical and Radiographic Results with the Proximal Femoral Intramedullary Nail (PROFIN), the Anti-Rotation Proximal Femoral Nail (A-PFN), and the InterTAN Nail

Medicina, 2023
Background and Objectives: The aim of this study was to evaluate retrospectively the radiological and functional outcomes of closed reduction and internal fixation for intertrochanteric femoral fractures (IFF) using three different proximal femoral nails (PFN).
