Abstract

Because of the anatomical peculiarities of the subtrochanteric region, treatment of fractures in this region remains challenging. The undeniable evolution of implants has not been accompanied by the expected decrease in the complication rate. The aim of this study was to discuss critical points in detail, such as preoperative planning, reduction tactics and the current scientific evidence concerning treatment of subtrochanteric fractures of the femur.
