The fixation methods were selected based on the surgeon\u2019s preference. Outcomes were assessed using the Harris Hip Score, visual analogue score (VAS) for pain, and EuroQol 5 Dimensions \u2013 5 Level (EQ5D-5L) prior to and after surgery. Patients were regularly followed up for one year.

According to the Vancouver classification, there were 1 type AG, 15 type B1, and 9 type C fractures. Postoperative complications included wound site infection (<jats:italic>n<\/jats:italic>\u2009=\u20092) and non-union (<jats:italic>n<\/jats:italic>\u2009=\u20091). The mean pre-trauma Harris Hip Score was 77.44\u2009\u00b1\u20098.63 (range, 65 to 90), and the mean Harris Hip Score collected at the final follow-up was 72.47\u2009\u00b1\u20098.85 (range, 60 to 86) (<jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic>\u2009&lt;\u20090.05). The mean pre-trauma VAS was 2.20\u2009\u00b1\u20091.21 (range, 0 to 4), and the mean VAS recorded at the final follow-up was 3.00\u2009\u00b1\u20091.41 (range, 0 to 5) (<jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic>\u2009&lt;\u20090.05).
