Is proximal femoral nailing of unstable intertrochanteric fractures in the lateral decubitus position without a traction table as safe and effective as on a traction table?
Objectives Using proximal femoral nailing (PFN) in the lateral decubitus (lateral) position
may be an option when no traction table is available. We hypothesized that applying PFN …
