Fellowship-Trained Orthopaedic Trauma Surgeons Achieve Better Postoperative Radiographic Parameters After Intramedullary Nailing of Intertrochanteric Femur Fractures when Compared With Non-trauma-Trained Surgeons.

Overall, we have shown that fellowship-trained orthopaedic trauma surgeons achieve better reductions when treating intertrochanteric femur fractures with intramedullary nails. Orthopaedic residency training should emphasize teaching proper techniques and acceptable parameters for reduction and implant placement when treating geriatric intertrochanteric femur fractures.
