    Abstract:
    This case report illustrates a subcapital femoral neck fracture following application of a compression screw and side plate to treat an intertrochanteric hip fracture. This is an uncommon complication in the management of intertrochanteric hip fractures. The authors describe steps in this surgical technique that minimize the possibility of this complication.
