Correlation between lag screw route and the ideal insertion point of the intramedullary nail

Abstract Understanding the morphology of the superior aspect of the proximal femur is critical for treating femoral fracture. We assessed the correlation among the ideal insertion point of the femoral nail, femur head-neck axis, and native anteversion. One hundred patients with normal femurs were in...
