Fig. 5From: Anterior positioning screw in proximal femoral plating restricts posterior tilt of retroverted femoral neck fractures: a retrospective cohort studyGraphical illustration of proximal femoral plating with an anterior long-threaded cannulated screw in the fixation of retroverted femoral neck fractures. By employing a screw with longer thread in the anterior part of femoral head, which provide greater holding force to avoid malposition, inclination of posterior tilt of the femoral head could be better counteractedBack to article page
