A biomechanical investigation of a novel intramedullary nail used to salvage failed internal fixations in intertrochanteric fractures
Abstract Purpose The ideal approach for revision surgery following femoral head salvage treatments for an intertrochanteric fracture is still up for debate. A novel variety of proximal femoral bionic intramedullary nail (PFBN) has been created in clinical practice. We aimed to compare the biomechani...
