Computational Simulation of a Femoral Nail Fracture

open access: yesMetals, 2023
Femoral nails are used to provide fixation for fractured long bones. These constructs simultaneously provide stability and union in nearly 10% of cases of premature failure.

Proximal humeral interlocking system plate for pediatric subtrochanteric femur fracture: a case report [PDF]

open access: yes, 2023
Hip fractures are rare in the pediatric age group and they contribute about 1% of all fractures in children. Subtrochanteric femur fractures are the rarest form of hip fractures in children.

Outcome of Subtrochanteric Femur Fractures Treated by Proximal Femoral Nail in a Tertiary Care Hospital

open access: yesJournal of Rawalpindi Medical College, 2022
Background: Subtrochanteric femoral fractures are challenging for surgeons, as it has strong collapsing forces at fracture site.The management of sub-trochanteric fractures, especially nonunion is challenging.Proximal Femoral Nail can be helpful in ...

Exchange nailing and medial wall reconstruction following implant failure in a subtrochanteric femoral fracture

open access: yesTrauma Case Reports, 2021
Failure of fixation of subtrochanteric fractures has been reported in as high as 20% of cases. Several associations have been suggested to contribute to failed fixation.

Biomechanical Behavior of Dynamic vs. Static Distal Locking Intramedullary Nails in Subtrochanteric Femur Fractures

open access: yesBioengineering, 2023
Objective: Hip fractures are one of the most frequent fractures presenting to the emergency department and orthopedic trauma teams. The aim of this study was to determine the best indication and therapeutic technique for subtrochanteric fractures and ...

Management of a pediatric subtrochanteric fracture: A conventional technique using an unconventional implant

open access: yesJournal of Marine Medical Society, 2022
Pediatric subtrochanteric fractures have been treated historically with intramedullary nailing, sliding hip screw, or pediatric proximal femoral locking plates, which are often based on the fracture pattern or availability of suitable implants.

Biomechanical Study of Intramedullary Versus Extramedullary Implants for Four Types of Subtrochanteric Femoral Fracture

open access: yesOrthopaedic Surgery, 2022
Objectives To compare the biomechanical performance of proximal femoral nail anti‐rotation (PFNA), the “upside‐down” less invasive plating system (LISS), and proximal femoral locking plate (PFLP) in fixing different fracture models of subtrochanteric ...

The treatment of subtrochanteric fractures

open access: yesSrpski arhiv za celokupno lekarstvo, 2011
Subtrochanteric fractures of the femur have a special place because of a significant number of complications following treatment. Powerful loading forces asymmetrically acting to this bone segment, as well as poor vascularization interfere with bone union.

Internal fixation of subtrochanteric femoral fractures in children using a T-plate [PDF]

open access: yesThe Egyptian Orthopaedic Journal, 2015
BackgroundDisplaced subtrochanteric femoral fractures in children can be difficult to treat because of inherent fracture instability, a short metaphyseal fragment, and close proximity of the fracture to the growth plate.

Treatment of subtrochanteric fracture in children:Titanium elastic nails versus plate and screws [PDF]

open access: yesMinia Journal of Medical Research, 2020
The treatment of subtrochanteric femoral fracture in children between 4and 12 years of age is challenging. The optimal choice of internal fixation for these patients is controversial. The purpose of this study is to compare the outcomes and complications
