This document discusses the evaluation and treatment of trochanteric and subtrochanteric femoral nonunions. It notes that nonunion must be considered for persistent pain after fixation or hardware failure. CT can help differentiate nonunion from malunion when hardware obscures radiographs. Treatment depends on factors like age, hardware status, and femoral head/neck quality. Younger patients may be treated with bone grafting or hardware revision while older patients may be candidates for arthroplasty. Various fixation methods are discussed like intramedullary nails, blade plates, and locking plates. Hardware failure, malreduction, and deformity correction are also addressed.
