Abstrakt: Lateral wall fracture was considered to be one of the major contributors to failure when such fractures were routinely treated with Sliding hip screw. Later, several publications stressed that the Intramedullary device (IM) is the implant of choice in such cases. Hence PFNA2 became the implant of choice in Asian population for unstable IT fracture since the last decade. But failures With this background we have assessed our results of last 5 years where PFNA2 was the only implant used for all IT fractures irrespective of comminution and stability.
