Complication rates after proximal femoral nailing: does level of training matter?
BackgroundSurgical treatment of pertrochanteric fractures is one of the most performed surgeries in orthogeriatrics. Proximal femoral nailing, the...

Tranexamic acid in pertrochanteric fractures: a retrospective analysis of perioperative outcomes after fixation with a proximal femoral nail
BackgroundTreatment of pertrochanteric femoral fractures is often associated with significant blood loss. It has already been demonstrated that the...
-
Secondary fracture rates and risk factors 1 year after a proximal femoral fracture under FLS
IntroductionWe aimed to investigate the secondary fracture rates and risk factors in patients with proximal femoral fractures using fracture liaison...

Therapy aspects of peri-implant femoral fractures—a retrospective analysis of 64 patients
PurposeThe incidence of peri-implant femoral fractures (PIFF) is increasing. Information regarding outcomes, timing of surgery, risk factors, and a...
-
The association between three-dimensional measurement of posterior tilt angle in impacted femoral neck fractures and osteonecrosis of the femoral head
BackgroundHollow screw internal fixation is commonly used in clinical treatment of impacted femoral neck fractures. Previous studies have...
