Use of the 95-degree angled blade plate with biological and mechanical augmentation to treat proximal femur non-unions: a case series

Use of the 95-degree angled blade plate with biological and mechanical augmentation to treat proximal femur non-unions: a case series

Abstract Background Intertrochanteric and subtrochanteric non-union are rare but challenging complications. In the present study, we investigate the use of a 95° blade, in association with biological and mechanical augmentation, in the management of intertrochanteric and subtrochanteric femoral non-...
