Subtrochanteric fractures of the femur: update
Revista Brasileira de Ortopedia (English Edition), 2016 Because of the anatomical peculiarities of the subtrochanteric region, treatment of fractures in this region remains challenging. The undeniable evolution of implants has not been accompanied by the expected decrease in the complication rate. The aim of this study was to discuss critical points in detail, such as preoperative planning, reduction ...
