Comparative study between effectiveness of proximal femoral nail and dynamic condylar screw in fixation of subtrochanteric femur fracture

Background: Subtrochanteric femur accounts for 10–30% of peri-trochanteric fractures. They need early fixation to avoid complications of prolonged immobilization. Proximal femoral nail (PFN) and dynamic condylar screw (DCS) fixation are most commonly used for subtrochanteric fracture fixation. Ai...
