Customised proximal femoral nail in treatment of intertrochanteric fracture with ipsilateral femoral shaft malunion: A case report.

Peritrochanteric fractures are the most common fragility fractures for which patient are admitted in hospital and often require surgical interventions. With increasing life expectancy and early age of presentation, revision surgeries are increasing due to re-trauma, implant failure, infections etc. Here we present the case of a 65 years female, with inter trochanteric fracture femur right side with ipsilateral malunited proximal femur fracture, which was managed with customised proximal femoral nail. This case exemplifies the need for novel techniques and implants in our armamentarium to deal with such unusual fractures in elderly population.
