Two-Part Intertrochanteric Femur Fractures with Bisection of the Lesser Trochanter: An Irreducible Fracture Pattern.

Two-part pertrochanteric femur fractures with bisection of the lesser trochanter have an irreducible fracture pattern with cortical locking and soft tissue incarceration. Soft tissue release and short cephalomedullary nail fixation for this fracture pattern provide stable fixation and allow early exercise. This treatment appears to have excellent outcomes in the short and medium terms.
