• To investigate the position of the anterior fracture line in AO/Orthopaedic Trauma Association (AO/OTA) type A2 unstable intertrochanteric fractures and its impact on the incidence of anterior cortical reduction loss after cephalomedullary nail fixation. A clinical data of 95 patients with intertrochanteric fractures who met the selection criteria between April 2020 and February 2023 was retrospectively analyzed. All patients were treated with cephalomedullary nail fixation, and the intra- and post-operative imaging data were complete. Among them, there were 37 males and 58 females. The age ranged from 61 to 97 years, with an average of 79.6 years. The time from injury to operation ranged from 7 hours to 11 days, with an average of 2.8 days. According to the 2018-AO/OTA classification standard, there were 39 cases of type 31-A2.2 and 56 cases of type 31-A2.3. Intraoperative fluoroscopy was used to record the number of patients with satisfactory fracture alignment. The preoperative CT data were imported into M
