Risk of internal fixation treatment in intertrochanteric fracture based on different lateral femoral wall thickness: finite element analysis

Abstract Objective The thickness of the lateral femoral wall, which is an important indicator for evaluating the stability and integrity of intertrochanteric fractures, has been widely studied in recent years. However, as a typical representative of internal fixation treatment, there are few reports...
