Biomechanical evaluation of three implants for treating unstable femoral intertrochanteric fractures: finite element analysis in axial, bending and torsion loads
Purpose: How to effectively enhance the mechanical stability of intramedullary implants for unstable femoral intertrochanteric fractures (UFIFs) is challenging. The authors developed a new implant for managing such patients. Our aim was to enhance the whole mechanical stability of internal devices t...
