Abstract
Our results suggest that all common core decompression methods have a significant impact on the biomechanical competence of the proximal femur and impact its mechanical potential. Fracture risk increases with drilling diameter and multiple drilling with smaller diameter. We recommend the anterior approach due to its reduced soft tissue trauma and its biomechanical performance.
