Subtrochanteric Femur Fracture
Journal of Orthopaedic Trauma, 2002A sixty-eight-year-old man was in a motor vehicle accident and sustained a left hip fracture. He has no significant past medical history and presents in stable condition and has no wounds.

Subtrochanteric Femoral Fractures
Orthopedic Clinics of North America, 1980Femoral fractures in the subtrochanteric and proximal shaft regions require special management because of the great stresses inflicted on the area. Stability is best achieved with intramedullary fixation when there is adequate control of both proximal and distal fragments.

Subtrochanteric Fracture of Femur
JAMA, 1961Dr. W. H. Harris: A 12-year-old girl was admitted to the Massachusetts General Hospital approximately 45 minutes after having been run over by a truck. She had not lost consciousness. Her past medical history was not remarkable except for an appendectomy one year previously. She was in moderate discomfort at the time of admission.

Surgical treatment of subtrochanteric fractures
Injury, 1974Abstract This paper is a contribution to the study of the surgical treatment of subtrochanteric fractures. By the term ‘subtrochanteric fractures’ we mean fractures beginning at or directly below the lesser trochanter and extending down the shaft of the femur.

Contemporary Management of Subtrochanteric Fractures
Orthopedic Clinics of North America, 2015Cephalomedullary interlocking nails that allow for trochanteric entry and minimally invasive fixation have revolutionized the contemporary management of subtrochanteric fractures with improved union rates and decreased incidence of fixation failure. The most successful alternative to intramedullary fixation remains the angled blade plate.

Archives of Orthopaedic and Traumatic Surgery, 1984
With use of a simple classification based on anatomical criteria and anatomical function, 27 subtrochanteric fractures of the femur were studied. The series was derived from 156 elderly patients with extracapsular hip fractures, all of whom were operated on by the Ender method. There were no infections.

Compression Fixation of Subtrochanteric Fractures
Clinical Orthopaedics and Related Research, 1976Compression fixation with a blade plate was used in the treatment of 11 fresh and 9 nonunited subtrochanteric fractures. Fifteen fractures united as fixed. Three settled into varus with eventual union in 2 and a fibrous nonunion with metal failure in one.

Subtrochanteric missile fractures of the femur
Injury, 1998The treatment results of subtrochanteric missile fractures of the femur in 41 casualties are analyzed. The wounds were inflicted by infantry weapon missiles in 29 (70.7%) and by fragments of mine or explosive devices in 12 (29.3%) casualties. The associated neurovascular bundle injuries were present in 11 (26.8%) patients.

Subtrochanteric Fractures of the Femur in Children
Clinical Orthopaedics and Related Research, 1975Subtrochanteric fractures are relatively rare in children and usually result from severe trauma. The unique biomechnical forces about the hip following fracture tend to complicate treatment. Remodeling and growth stimulation generally ensure good results by nonoperative means in children under 10 years of age.

Classification of subtrochanteric femoral fractures
Injury, 2010A review of the literature identified 15 different classification methods for subtrochanteric femoral fractures. Only eight of those classifications defined the area of bone, which constituted a subtrochanteric fracture. The actual length of femur defined as the subtrochanteric zone varied from 3 cm up to the level of the femoral isthmus.
