Fig. 3. Postoperative radiographs of a lesser trochanter splitting irreducible intertrochanteric fracture in a 38-year-old male patient. (A) The head-neck fragment contained more than 1/2 of the lesser trochanter length. As much as the gap of the fracture site, the length of the lesser trochanter (white arrow) was longer than that of the contralateral normal side (black arrow). (B) At 1 year postoperative, the radiograph showed complete bony union of the fracture site.
