Introduction The purpose of this study was to evaluate the proportion of greater trochanter
(GT) fractures with occult extension to the intertrochanteric region on magnetic resonance …

Introduction Isolated fractures of the greater trochanter (GT) are relatively rare. The
diagnosis can be done on routine radiographs, but it is difficult to fully define the geographic …

Objectives: We evaluated isolated fractures of the greater trochanter (IFGT) on plain
radiographs with multiplanar reformation computed tomography (MPR CT). Design …

Objective. To demonstrate the MR depiction of the intertrochanteric or femoral neck
extension of fractures of the greater trochanter, when standard radiographs show only a …

Background Isolated fractures of the greater trochanter are unusual injuries with a wide
spectrum of presentation, investigations and management strategies. Aims The objective of …

The diagnosis of an isolated fracture of the greater trochanter can be done on routine
radiographs, but this may not be the whole story. We evaluated fractures of the greater …

Background: The objective of this study was to evaluate the risk of femur intertrochanteric
fracture associated with femur trochanter major fractures in patients over 65 years of age …

Background In cases of suspected isolated greater trochanteric fracture, difficulty exists in
establishing a definitive diagnosis when plain film is equivocal for fracture extension. There …
