Positive or negative anteromedial cortical support of unstable pertrochanteric femoral fractures: A finite element analysis study

Positive or negative anteromedial cortical support of unstable pertrochanteric femoral fractures: A finite element analysis study

Objective: To explore the mechanical stability of unstable pertrochanteric fractures with proximal femoral nail anti-rotation (PFNA-Ⅱ) fixation under different anteromedial cortical support reduction patterns. Methods: A 65-year-old healthy male volunteer with no history of hip or systemic disease w...
