Posterior Angulation in Trochanteric Fractures Detected with Roentgen Stereophotogrammetry
Abstract
Roentgen stereophotogrammetric analysis has been carried out in 8 patients with trochanteric fracture after fixation with a sliding screw-plate. In 6 of the 8 cases the proximal fragment angulated posteriorly after the operation. Posterior angulation may be an important mode of failure of trochanteric fractures.
