Partial weight bearing and long-term survival outcomes in extracapsular hip fractures treated with trochanteric Gamma3 nails

Partial weight bearing and long-term survival outcomes in extracapsular hip fractures treated with trochanteric Gamma3 nails

Abstract Background Benefits of partial weight bearing (PWB) in operated extracapsular hip fractures (ECF) have not been proved. We have assessed influence of PWB on long-term survival and the final mobility achieved, dependence and mortality-related factors. Methods Retrospective cohort study of os...
