Abstract
We compared the sliding distance of the lag screw, change in neck-shaft angle (NSA), and nonunion rates according to the anteromedial cortical support on anteroposterior (AP) and lateral view radiographs post intertrochanteric fracture reduction.In this systematic review and meta-analysis, MEDLINE, Embase, and Cochrane Library databases were searched systematically for studies published before September 26, 2020. We performed synthetic analyses...
