Treatment of Reverse Oblique Intertrochanteric or Subtrochanteric Fractures With a Proximal Femur Locking Compression Plate (PF-LCP, PF-LCP Hook Plate, PeriLoc) or Trochanteric Nails. A Multicenter Cohort Study


The purpose of this study is to compare the abductor muscle strength measured with a
dynamometer in patients with reverse oblique inter- or subtrochanteric fractures treated
either with a proximal femur locking plate or a trochanteric nail.

"Proximal femur locking plates" stands for both the PF-LCP (Synthes) and the PeriLoc (Smith
& Nephew). Trochanteric nails allowed in this study are the Proximal Femoral Nail
Antirotation (PFNA), the Titanium Trochanteric Fixation Nail (TFN) and the Gamma Nail (GN).
