Factors associated with increased radiation exposure in the fixation of proximal femoral fractures

CONCLUSIONS: Increased radiation in proximal femur fractures is seen in the fixation of complex fractures, some subtypes, with certain types of implants used and if an additional implant was required. Surgeon seniority did not result in less radiation exposure, which is in contrast to other published studies.PMID:38563063 | DOI:10.1308/rcsann.2023.0092
