Proximal Femoral Nail for the Treatment of Reverse Obliquity Intertrochanteric Fractures Compared With Gamma Nail

Abstract

There was no difference in clinical outcome between the PFN and GN groups. However, the PFN demonstrated better results biomechanically than the GN did in terms of less sliding of lag screw, less change of neck-shaft angle, and less complications for the treatment of reverse obliquity intertrochanteric fractures.
