Comparison of varus malalignment in unstable extracapsular proximal femur fracture between proximal femoral nail antirotation (PFNA) and proximal femoral locking plate (PFLCP) : a retrospective study
Unstable fractures of proximal femur of the pertrochanteric and subtrochanteric region are challenging injuries due to the high loads transmission across the affected part of the bone to the hip joint. The selection of the implants remained controversial but many studies favouring intramedullary imp...
