  Fig. 4 LFA of the right hip one year after nailing. No. 3 position for reattachment of the trochanter enhanced by springloaded wire. There is inevitably some proximal misplacement of the trochanter plate resulting from the use of a conventional wire tightner. Two broken screws are seen in the medullary canal of the femur.
