The primary comparison included 155 surgically and 69 conservatively treated patients; 11 receiving mixed bilateral treatment were excluded. Propensity\u2010score overlap weighting was used to adjust for baseline differences. Prognostic factors were evaluated using multivariable logistic regression, with Firth regression applied when separation occurred.

No independent factor was identified in the surgical group. In the conservative group, displaced fractures had greater odds of failure than fractures with no or minimal displacement (adjusted OR\u2009=\u20097.61; 95% CI, 1.45\u201377.84;\n                      <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\n                      \u2009=\u20090.014).
