The impact on lateral wall fractures by a sliding hip screw device in trochanteric fractures: a biomechanical study

The impact on lateral wall fractures by a sliding hip screw device in trochanteric fractures: a biomechanical study

Aims: Trochanteric fractures with a reduced lateral wall thickness and a detached lesser trochanter are unstable. These characteristics can lead to failure through a lateral wall fracture after fixation with a sliding hip screw device (SHS). However, the precise mechanism by which these characteris...
