Abstract

Intertrochanteric fractures are a common type of fracture in the proximal femur, occurring most frequently in elderly individuals between the ages of 66 and 70. The incidence of this type of fracture has been increasing. The most common mechanism of fracture is simple trauma, with the left side being more commonly affected than the right. Given the necessity of effective treatment, GN has identified the best method for this type of fracture as being the least invasive, with the least bleeding, the shortest operation time, and the fastest weight bearing. This makes it an appropriate treatment for elderly patients, who constitute the majority of patients with this type of fracture
