Avoiding malalignment in proximal femur fractures treated with newer generation cephalomedullary nails: Some technical tips.

Arvind Kumar1, Samarth Mittal2, Aditya Jain1, Vivek Trikha2.   

Abstract

Three techniques to avoid malalignment in proximal femoral fractures managed with cephalomedullary nails, have been described. Issues related to rotational mismatch at fracture site, central placement of lag screw in femoral head neck fragment and limb rotation restoration have been addressed. We believe these simple techniques can help in minimizing malreduction in proximal femur fractures and result in favourable outcomes.
