Reversed LISS-DF in selected cases of complex proximal femur fractures

DOI:https://doi.org/10.1016/j.injury.2009.05.033
Reversed LISS-DF in selected cases of complex proximal femur fractures
Previous ArticleA simple substitute for when the abduction pillow is unavailable
Next ArticleThe European Standard testing method for motorcyclists’ protective clothing (EN 1621-1) is unsuitable for hip protectors
      The treatment of complex proximal femur fractures is challenging. A broad spectrum of implants is available. Antegrade nailing is a well-established technique and the treatment of choice. However, intra-operative fat embolism or postoperative pelvi-trochanteric pain or limping can occur.
