Why the study?
What are the clinical outcomes of surgical treatment for subtrochanteric fracture of the femur?
What are the clinical outcomes of surgical treatment for subtrochanteric fracture of the femur?
Surgical treatment of subtrochanteric femur fractures yields good bone union and functional recovery, though delayed union with intramedullary nails may require dynamization or additional fixation.
Supports surgical fixation for subtrochanteric fractures in small series; hypothesis-generating and requires larger prospective confirmation before practice change.
