Pathoanatomy and pathomechanics of pertrochanteric fractures – MRI study
Analysis of MRI findings has documented that the primary fracture line in pertrochanteric fractures originates in the GT and extends distally, medially and anteriorly towards the anterior cortex, the intertrochanteric line and the LT. Thus, the GT presents a rather vulnerable site and is always broken into more fragments than shown by a radiograph.
