Anteroposterior radiograph of the right hip

（a）Direct traction of 4kg was unsuccessful in reducing the fracture, leaving a persistent displacement of the lesser trochanter and medial cortex of the calcar. This response indicates an unstable fracture, classified as Type 1 Group 3 under the Evans classification.
（b）Postoperative x-ray shows acceptable repositioning.
（c）X-ray six months later demonstrates bone healing of the intertrochanteric fracture.
