Abstract:Objective:The aim is to investigate the optimum level of insertion for proximal locking screw in the proximal femurs. Material-Method: The distance between the trochanteric fossa and lesser trochanter and the medial-lateral femur canal diameters 20 mm proximal and 20 mm distal to the lesser trochanter within an intervals of 10 millimeters on AP radiograms of 208 patients in both genders and different age groups were measured. Results: The average distances between the trochanteric fossa and lesser trochanter l… Show more
