Objective To compare short versus long intramedullary nails for intertrochanteric hip
fractures in terms of efficacy and safety. Methods We included cohort studies and …

Femoral head varus is an important complication in intertrochanteric fracture patients treated
with proximal femoral nail anti-rotation (PFNA) fixation. Theoretically, extending the length of …

Abstract Background and Objectives The anatomical reduction (AR) is usually considered
the best option for fractures. Nevertheless, in unstable trochanteric hip fractures (UTHF) …

Objectives The purpose of the study was to compare treatment outcomes after short or long
cephalomedullary nailing for intertrochanteric femur fractures. Data sources A systematic …

Introduction Both the DHS and the PFNA are common and well-studied treatment options for
stable trochanteric fractures. The aim of the current study was to compare the implant failure …

Introduction Previous articles reported on the tip–apex distance, lag screw placement,
fracture pattern, reduction quality, osteoporosis and other factors associated with second …

Intertrochanteric femur fracture is a common type of osteoporotic fracture in elderly patients,
and postoperative femoral head varus following proximal femoral nail anti-rotation (PFNA) …

Abstract Purpose Intertrochanteric Femur Fractures (IFF) fixation could be done with short or
long Cephalomedullary Nails (CMNs). Nevertheless, despite several studies in the literature …

Background Solid organ transplantation (SOT) recipients have complex medical and
surgical risk factors; however, the outcomes of these patients undergoing surgical fixation of …

Background Anterior femoral cortical impingement and perforation are known risks of
cephalomedullary nailing. The incidence of and risk factors for these findings have not been …
