The PFNA in treatment of intertrochanteric fractures with or without lateral wall fracture in elderly patients: a retrospective cohort study
Abstract Background There is no consensus about intertrochanteric fractures with lateral wall treated with intramedullary nail—proximal femoral nail antirotation (PFNA). The aim of the present study was to compare function outcomes between lateral wall and no lateral wall fractures after surgery by...
