Biomechanics of subtrochanteric fracture fixation using short cephalomedullary nails: A finite element analysis.
A finite element analysis was performed to evaluate the stresses around nails and cortical bones in subtrochanteric (ST) fracture models fixed using short cephalomedullary nails (CMNs). A total 96 finite element models (FEMs) were simulated on a transverse ST fracture at eight levels with three diff...
