Background: Pediatric subtrochanteric femur fractures are uncommon but pose unique challenges due to the biomechanical forces acting on this region. Elastic Stable Intramedullary Nailing (ESIN) and Open Reduction Internal Fixation (ORIF) are widely used ...

Further understanding on osteopetrotic femoral fractures: a case report and literature review
Background Osteopetrosis is a genetic disease characterized by defects in osteoclast formation and function. There were a few cases of subtrochanteric femur fractures treated with dynamic hip screw (DHS) in patients with osteopetrosis, but unfortunately ...

Inflammatory Pseudotumor After Total Hip Arthroplasty‐An Increasingly Recognized Complication
This review systematically elucidates the clinical characteristics and management of inflammatory pseudotumor (IP) across different bearing surfaces, addressing a topic of increasing concern and providing a novel perspective. It synthesizes the five primary risk factors associated with IP, offering clinicians critical reference points.

Results of proximal femoral nailing in subtrochanteric fracture of femur in adults
Introduction: Subtrochanteric fractures occur in a zone extending from the lesser trochanter to 5 cm distal to the lesser trochanter, however, extension into the intertrochanteric region is common.

ABSTRACT Background Long‐term opioid therapy (LTOT) after hip fracture surgery is a common postoperative complication associated with adverse outcomes, yet tools to identify at‐risk patients among opioid‐naïve older adults are lacking. This study aimed to develop and internally validate a parsimonious model to predict LTOT following hip fracture ...
