Treatment of Unstable Trochanteric Femur Fractures: Proximal Femur Nail Versus Proximal Femur Locking Compression Plate.
Unstable trochanteric femur fractures are common fractures that are difficult to manage. We conducted a prospective study to compare functional outcomes and complications of 2 different implant designs, proximal femur nail (PFN) and proximal femur locking compression plate (PFLCP), used in internal fixation of unstable trochanteric femur fractures. On hospital admission, 48 patients with unstab...
متن کاملSurgical Treatment of Pathological Fractures Occurring at the Proximal Femur
PURPOSE To analyze the results of surgical treatment for pathological fractures at the proximal femur. MATERIALS AND METHODS Nineteen patients with a pathological fracture were included. The mean age was 65.7 years old. The patients comprised 8 males and 11 females. Primary tumors, types of pathological fractures, surgical procedures, and postoperative complications were recorded. Musculoskel...
متن کاملSurgical treatment of fractures through metastases in the proximal femur.
One-sixth of all fractures through skeletal metastases are in the proximal fourth of the femur (Clam 1965). Closed treatment in general leads to union in only 5 per cent of fractures through metastases (Clam !oc. cit.), and in the hip region Francis, Higinbotham, Carroll, Jacobs and Graham (1962) have never found union. The period of survival after fracture averages eight months, and functional...
متن کاملBone Fluoride in Proximal Femur Fractures
Bone fluoride concentration and bone mineral density (BMD) were evaluated in 51 female patients who had undergone hip arthroplasty due to proximal femur fracture. The hip fractures were divided into 42 neck and head fractures and 9 trochanteric fractures. BMD in the contralateral femoral neck and Ward triangle was determined by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry measurement performed within 7 day...
متن کاملSurgical Management Of Proximal Femur Fractures By Proximal Femoral Nail
Background and Objectives: Proximal third fractures of femur like intertrochanteric and subtrochanteric fractures, are a leading cause of hospital admissions in elderly people. The number of such admissions is on a raise because of increasing life span and sedentary habits. Conservative methods of treatment results in malunion with shortening and limitation of hip movement as well as complicati...
