Decreased femoral fracture load after cephalomedullary nail removal: a biomechanical ex vivo study

Decreased femoral fracture load after cephalomedullary nail removal: a biomechanical ex vivo study

Aims: Spontaneous neck fractures are feared complications of cephalomedullary nail removal after successful healing of per- and subtrochanteric fractures. To date, the initial postoperative stability as well as the correct weightbearing regimen remain unclear. The aim of this biomechanical ex vivo...
