Subtrochanteric stress fractures in runners
The American Journal of Sports Medicine, 1982Seven college track team members with stress frac tures in the subtrochanteric area of the femur were diagnosed using x-ray films and bone imaging. One, with repeated negative x-ray films, was considered to have a stress reaction. Suspected causes for this high incidence of subtrochanteric stress fractures include a change in running surfaces and an ...

Operative Treatment of Subtrochanteric Fractures
Orthopedics, 1983ABSTRACT: Sixty-four patients with subtrochanteric fractures of the femur treated with internal fixation are reviewed. Twenty-six patients treated with Jewett nails are compared to 23 patients treated with Zickel nails. Total length of hospital stay, time to union, and time to full weightbearing were similar between the two groups. Six patients treated

Subtrochanteric Femoral Fractures
2020Subtrochanteric fractures of the femur occur in an area with high mechanical stresses both axial and torsional. Consequently, optimum reduction and fixation are essential to avoid complications of implant failure and nonunion. Closed reduction can be difficult due to the effect of pulling forces from different muscle groups.

Subtrochanteric Fractures of the Femur
Clinical Orthopaedics and Related Research, 1989The results were retrospectively analyzed of 47 subtrochanteric fractures of the femur treated with a 95° condylar blade-plate to establish whether two different surgical techniques yielded different results.

Bone Grafting in Subtrochanteric Fractures
Clinical Orthopaedics and Related Research, 1982Of 40 adult patients with nonpathologic subtrochanteric fractures, 38 were treated by compression internal fixation using the ASIF technique and two were treated conservatively. Of many factors causing failure of internal fixation, comminution of the medial cortex is the major factor.

[Trochanteric and subtrochanteric fractures].
Der Chirurg; Zeitschrift fur alle Gebiete der operativen Medizen, 2019Proximal femoral fractures are one of the most common fractures, particularly in older people. The most common cause is a falling event due to dizziness and gait insecurity. In most cases prompt surgical treatment is necessary to achieve early mobilization and to reduce the risk of mortality. The aim is a stable osteosynthesis and patient-centered care.

Subtrochanteric Femur Fractures
(1) The strong muscular envelope of the proximal femur contributes to the deforming forces on a subtrochanteric femur fracture, and must be fully understood in order to achieve an appropriate intraoperative reduction and prevent fixation failure. (2) The surgical stabilization of subtrochanteric femur fractures is primarily performed with antegrade ...Brandon J. Yuan, David P. Barei
