Mechanical effect of changed femoral neck ante-version angles on the stability of an intertrochanteric fracture fixed with PFNA: A finite element analysis

Objective: Change of femoral neck ante-version angle postoperatively due to inadequate reduction could result in unsatisfying treatment outcome of intertrochanteric fracture. However, the influence of increased or decreased femoral neck ante-version on the biomechanical stability of the bone-implant...
