Functional Outcome of Intertrochanteric Fractures of the Femur Treated With Standard Surgical Modalities
The mean operative time was lower in the PFN A2 group, and the HHE score values were higher than those of PFN and DHS. This study concludes that these implants have a comparable radiological and functional outcome for unstable intertrochanteric fracture except for less surgical time and blood loss in PFN A2.
