“…In the group in which osteosynthesis was performed in the lateral position, patient was placed in the lateral decubitus position with the aid of cushions on the back and abdomen; AP and L radiographs were made to assess the correct visualization of the entire femur and pelvis in two planes, as described by Oliveira et al 6 …”

“…5 In an earlier study conducted in the present hospital by de Oliveira et al, 6 conditions that could influence the efficiency of the reduction and the positioning of the cephalic element in the femoral head in pertrochanteric fractures, when fixated in lateral decubitus, were assessed. Given the encouraging results of that study, 6 the present authors conducted a comparative study to assess the results regarding the reduction and the spatial positioning of the cephalic element (CE) in the femoral head (cervicodiaphyseal angle), tip-apex distance (TAD), and spatial position of the CE in the femoral head (circle of Baumgaertner et al 7 ) in pertrochanteric fractures treated on a traction table. The goal was to assess whether the reduction and positioning of the cephalic element in both positioning methods were equivalent.…”

ObjectiveTo perform a retrospective radiographic assessment of the reduction and implant position in the femoral head in patients with pertrochanteric fractures treated with cephalomedullary nailing in the lateral position versus traction table.MethodsRadiographs of patients with pertrochanteric fracture of the femur treated with cephalomedullary nailing in the lateral position and traction table were retrospectively evaluated. For the evaluation we used the anteroposterior radiographic view of the pelvis and the lateral view of the affected side. The cervicodiaphyseal angle, the tip-apex distance (TAD), and the spatial position of the cephalic component in the head were measured. Two patient groups were created, one group operated on the traction table and another group operated in the lateral position.ResultsRegarding the cervicodiaphyseal angle observed in the traction table group, the results of 11 patients (61.1%) were outside the acceptable parameters proposed in the present study. Both groups were equivalent regarding TAD and the position of the cephalic component in the head.ConclusionA difference in the cervicodiaphyseal angle was observed; the group operated on the traction table had 11 patients (61.1%) whose measurements were outside the acceptable parameters.
