Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2017 at "Archives of Orthopaedic and Trauma Surgery"
DOI: 10.1007/s00402-017-2754-3
Abstract: Cephalomedullary fixations are commonly used in the treatment of intertrochanteric fractures. In clinical practice, one of the difficulties is when we exit the guide wire in a wrong position of femoral neck and insert near… read more here.

DOI: 10.1038/s41598-022-04844-5
Abstract: There is no consensus regarding the advantages of the lag screw type over the blade type for treating femoral trochanteric fractures. We aimed to investigate whether non-spiral blade (Conventional-Blade, Fid-Blade) nails provide better biomechanical fixation… read more here.
