Garden grading of intracapsular fractures: meaningful or misleading?
Abstract
A prospective study of 186 displaced intracapsular fractures treated by reduction and internal fixation found that the division into Garden grade 3 or grade 4 fractures had no predictive value in determining the quality of the reduction achieved, or the incidence of non-union. The value of the Garden classification of intracapsular fractures is questioned.
