Aim. In this prospective randomized study with intraobserver and interobserver assessment, we aimed to compare the classifications and operative decisions of intertrochanteric fractures realized by orthopedic surgeons with standard radiographs and traction internal rotation radiographs by intraobserver and interobserver assessment.
