متن کاملComparison between external fixation and sliding hip screw in the management of trochanteric fracture of the femur in Nepal.

متن کاملUse of the trochanteric flip osteotomy to facilitate internal fixation of a femoral head fracture
We report the case of a 42-year-old male who suffered a fracture-dislocation of the femoral head. After a closed reduction of the hip, this proceeded to an open reduction with internal fixation of the fractured femoral head, in addition to labral repair and micro-fracture of an articular cartilage defect. After considering the risks to the femoral head blood supply, the trochanteric flip osteot...
