Incidence of Cut-out Using Intramedullary Nails With Double Cephalic Screw vs. Unique in Pertrochanteric Fractures

Plain-language summary

The goal of this clinical trial is to compare outcomes in the treatment of proximal femur fractures. The main question it aims to answer is whether the use of a double cephalic screw prevents nail failure (cut-out). Participants will be treated using open reduction and internal fixation with a proximal femoral nail. Researchers will compare intramedullary nailing with a single cephalic screw (Gamma nail) and with a double cephalic screw (Chimaera nail) to see the cut-out rate.
