Five-Year Outcome Analysis of Intertrochanteric Femur Fractures: A Prospective Randomized Trial Comparing a 2-Screw and a Single-Screw Cephalomedullary Nail

摘要

Objectives: To compare the radiological and functional outcome after fixation of intertrochanteric fractures (IF) using either an integrated 2-screw cephalomedullary nail [InterTan (IT); Smith & Nephew] or a single-screw device [Gamma3 (G3); Stryker] with a 5-year follow-up.
