Welldone.... Can you please share the review or reference of paper for this video..?

[@Justorthothings]

Thanks! The basic angle calculation is what Pauwel had described as 25 degrees to achieve optimal compression as a nonunion site. The paper (Principles of Valgus Intertrochanteric Osteotomy (VITO) after Femoral Neck Nonunion): www.hindawi.com/journals/aorth/2018/5214273/ provides a good review of that. The implant positioning angle is not specifically described in a paper and is just to make understanding easier.
