Pelvic migration of the helical blade after treatment of transtrochanteric fracture using a proximal femoral nail
ABSTRACT Proximal femoral nails with a helical blade are a new generation of implants used for treating transtrochanteric fractures. The blade design provides rotational and angular stability for the fracture. Despite greater biomechanical resistance, they sometimes present complications. In the lit...
