Lateralization After IntraMedullary Nailing of InterTrochanteric Hip Fractures, Clinical and Radiographic Outcomes

NCT05094791 · Status: COMPLETED · Type: OBSERVATIONAL · Enrollment: 60

Last updated 2024-07-30

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Intertrochanteric fractures are commonly stabilized using an intramedullary nail with a lag screw that enters the lateral cortex of the femur. This lag screw commonly protrudes during the healing process and may cause implant related pain. This study will help determine if implant related pain is different depending to the lag screw design.
