Treatment of Femoral Fracture through the Sliding Screw Portal Following Fixation of the Femoral Neck Fracture

The authors report a case of secondary femoral fracture through the sliding hip screw portal following fixation of the femoral neck fracture. The femoral neck and subtrochanteric fracture was successfully treated by superimposing a trochanteric stabilization plate (TSP) onto the regular sliding hip screw.
