Özet

Several methods are used in the treatment of unstable intertrochanteric hip fractures in elderly patients with high mortality and morbidity. The aim of this study was to compare and present the clinical and radiological results of two alternative methods : cementless distal intramedullary stems and proximal femoral nail (PFN).
