Lateral decubitus positioning was associated with improved efficiency and functional outcome compared with traction table positioning for cephalomedullary nailing of subtrochanteric femur fractures: a retrospective comparative study

Abstract Background Subtrochanteric femur fractures are challenging to treat due to complex anatomy and high mechanical stresses. Cephalomedullary nailing is the standard treatment, often performed with the patient supine on a traction table, but this can prolong setup and cause complications (press...
