Comparative Assessment of Functional Recovery Following Dynamic Hip Screw Plate versus Proximal Femoral Nail Fixation in the Management of Unstable Trochanteric Fractures of the Femur

Comparative Assessment of Functional Recovery Following Dynamic Hip Screw Plate versus Proximal Femoral Nail Fixation in the Management of Unstable Trochanteric Fractures of the Femur

Background: Unstable trochanteric fractures include posteromedial comminution, reverse oblique pattern, lateral wall fracture and subtrochanteric extension. Unstable trochanteric fractures usually can be treated by anatomical reduction with the use of a sliding hip screw or cephalomedullary nail. DH...
