Computer-Assisted Intramedullary Nailing of Intertrochanteric Fractures Did Not Prevent Tip-Apex Distance Outliers.

Intertrochanteric femoral fractures are commonly treated with intramedullary nails (IMNs). A tip-apex distance (TAD) of more than 20-25 mm is associated with an increased risk of cut-out. The Stryker Adaptive Positioning System (ADAPT) is a computer-assisted navigation system designed to reduce TADs.
