Comparison of migration behavior between single and dual lag screw implants for intertrochanteric fracture fixation

BACKGROUND: Lag screw cut-out failure following fixation of unstable intertrochanteric fractures in osteoporotic bone remains an unsolved challenge. This study tested if resistance to cut-out failure can be improved by using a dual lag screw implant in place of a single lag screw implant. Migration...
