PPF is associated with a high complication rate. Revision alone and revision with additional fixation remain the preferred method in B2/B3 type fractures, however, cemented revision can yield similar outcomes with lower short-term mortality. Considering the high-risk elderly and frail category of patients, a multidisciplinary team is necessary to improve outcomes and reduce mortality.
