Treatment of femoral fracture through the sliding screw portal following fixation of the femoral neck fracture
Abstract
The authors report a case of secondary femoral fracture through the sliding hip screw portal following fixation of the femoral neck fracture. The femoral neck and subtrochanteric fracture was successfully treated by superimposing a trochanteric stabilization plate (TSP) onto the regular sliding hip screw.
