Background Cut-out is the most common mechanical complication of the osteosynthesis of
pertrochanteric fractures. This complication determines a significant increase in morbidity in …

Introduction Cephalomedullary nail (CMN) cut-out is a severe complication of treatment of
intertrochanteric femur fractures. This study aimed to identify modifiable risk factors …

Purpose The purpose of this study was to investigate differences in aseptic reoperation rates
between single or dual lag screw femoral nails, in the treatment of intertrochanteric fractures …

Cut-out is one of the most common mechanical failures in the internal fixation of trochanteric
hip fractures. The tip-apex distance (TAD), and the calcar-referenced tip apex distance …

Background Closed reduction and internal fixation (CRIF) is the preferred treatment to retain
the native joint and maintain optimal functionality in femoral neck fractures. Sliding hip screw …

Background and objective Proximal femur fractures, colloquially known as hip fractures, are
a common pathology with increasing incidence in the last years due to the enhanced ageing …

Background Despite recent advances in implants and surgical techniques, catastrophic and
clinical failures in the treatment of intertrochanteric fractures continue to occur, with dire …

Background: The reverse obliquity inter-trochanteric fracture is a distinct fracture pattern that
is mechanically different from most inter-trochanteric fractures and the optional treatment of it …

Purpose Cephalomedullary (CM) nailing is widely performed in treatment of elderly patients
with femoral intertrochanteric fractures. However, in cases of fixation failure, re-operation is …

Background It is irresponsible if we disregard reduction quality to talk about cut-outs in
intertrochanteric fractures (ITF) with internal fixation. The aim of this study is to analyze the …
