چکیده
abstract we report a 71 year-old patient with intertrochanteric fracture who had been managed with dhs and her healed fracture complicated by a subcapital femoral neck fracture. a subcapital femoral neck fracture complicating a healed intertrochanteric fracture is rare but catastrophic event. such cases are managed in a hetereogenous manner, i.e. there exists a mixture of cases treated by either fixed angle devices or dynamic compression hip screws (dhs). we report on a patient who developed subcapital femoral neck fractures after open reduction and internal fixation of an intertrochanteric hip fracture with a dynamic hip screw. we found 5 cases in literature with similar complication. source: urmia med j 2016: 26(10): 911 issn: 1027-3727
