Use of locking plates for fixation of the greater trochanter in patients with hip replacement
Background: Fixation of the greater trochanter with total hip replacement is challenging and associated with short- and long-term complications. Locking plate technology has been used for fixation of other bones and may be applied successfully in trochanteric fixation. The purpose of this retrospect...
