RESUMO
Thirty patients in whom a peritrochanteric fracture of the femur was stabilized with a Harris intramedullary nail were studied retrospectively. The study showed an initially high complication rate and highlighted points of technique and selection which have led to improved results. In appropriate cases, this procedure is a fast, minimally traumatic, and secure method of internal fixation of peritrochanteric fractures.
