Of these, 77 met the inclusion criteria of a non-pathological fracture with a minimum of 80 days radiological follow-up (mean 408 days; 81 days to 4.9 years). The overall cut-out rate was 13% (10\/77).<\/jats:p><jats:p>The significant parameters in the univariate analysis were tip-apex distance (TAD) (p\u00a0&lt; \u00a00.001), CalTAD (p = 0.001), cervical angle difference (p = 0.004), and lag screw placement in the anteroposterior (AP) view (Parker\u2019s ratio index) (p = 0.003). Non-significant parameters were age (p = 0.325), gender (p = 1.000), fracture side (p = 0.507), fracture type (AO classification) (p = 0.381), Singh Osteoporosis Index (p = 0.575), lag screw placement in the lateral view (p = 0.123), and reduction quality (modified Baumgaertner\u2019s method) (p\u00a0=\u00a00.575). In the multivariate analysis, CalTAD was the only significant measurement (p\u00a0=\u00a00.001). CalTAD had almost perfect inter-observer reliability (interclass correlation coefficient (ICC) 0.901).<\/jats:p><jats:p>Our data provide the first reported clinical evidence that CalTAD is a predictor of cut-out. The finding of CalTAD as the only significant parameter in the multivariate analysis, along with the univariate significance of Parker\u2019s ratio index in the AP view, suggest that inferior placement of the lag screw is preferable to reduce the rate of cut-out.<\/jats:p><jats:p>Cite this article: Bone Joint J 2014; 96-B:1029\u201334.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1302\/0301-620x.96b8.33644","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2014,8,1]],"date-time":"2014-08-01T09:54:01Z","timestamp":1406886841000},"page":"1029-1034","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1302\/crossmark-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":193,"title":["Predictors of failure for cephalomedullary nailing of proximal femoral fractures"],"prefix":"10.1302","volume":"96-B","author":[{"given":"A.","family":"Kashigar","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Mount Sinai Hospital, 600 University Avenue, Room 476A, Toronto, Ontario, M5G 1X5, Canada."}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"A.","family":"Vincent","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"University of Toronto, Division of Orthopaedic Surgery, Department of Surgery, 149 College Street, Toronto, Ontario, Canada."}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"M.
