A finite element analysis and cyclic load experiment on an additional transcortical-type hole formed around the proximal femoral nail system’s distal locking screw
BACKGROUND: A complication associated with the distal locking screw used in the proximal femoral nail (PFN) system is the formation of accidental additional holes. We hypothesized that an increase in stress around additional holes is a relevant factor contributing to fractures. This study aimed to e...
