Clin Case Rep. 2017 Dec 7;6(1):162-164. doi: 10.1002/ccr3.1275. eCollection 2018 Jan.

Even if the intertrochanteric fracture under an arthrodesis hip is rare and the optimal surgical treatment is controversial, we consider that treating this kind of fracture with a locked plate was a success.

Keywords: Ankylosis; arthrodesis; plate; trochanteric.
