Tratamento de fraturas intertrocantéricas estáveis do fêmur com haste femoral proximal versus parafuso dinâmico de quadril: um estudo comparativo

Proximal femoral nail provides a significantly shorter surgery with a smaller incision that leads to less wound‐related complications. However, the incidence of technical errors was significantly higher in proximal femoral nail when compared with dynamic hip screw as it is a technically more demanding surgery that leads to more implant failures and the consequent re‐operations.
