Intertrochanteric femoral fracture after hip resurfacing managed with a reverse distal femoral locking plate: a case report.

We describe an unusual complication following a Ganz trochanteric osteotomy approach, and the technique used to treat the subsequent periprosthetic fracture. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
