Case series and finite element analysis of PFNA combined with cerclage wire for treatment of subtrochanteric fracture of femur

Abstract Objective To retrospectively analyze the clinical efficacy of PFNA combined with a cerclage wire in the treatment of 52 patients with unstable subtrochanteric fracture of the femur and to analyze the biomechanical effect of ligature on a fracture model. Methods In this study, 52 patients wi...
