Proximal Femoral Nail vs. Dynamic Hip Screw in Treatment of Intertrochanteric Fractures: A Meta-Analysis
BACKGROUND The aim of this meta-analysis was to compare the outcomes of proximal femoral nail (PFN) and dynamic hip screw (DHS) in treatment of intertrochanteric fractures. MATERIAL AND METHODS Relevant randomized or quasi-randomized controlled studies comparing the effects of PFN and DHS were searched for following the requirements of the Cochrane Library Handbook. Six eligible studies invol...
متن کاملManagement of Pertrochanteric Fractures with Proximal Femoral Nail and Comparison of Results with Dynamic Hip Screw
Introduction: Proximal Femoral Nail and Dynamic Hip Screw, both are the accepted implants for the internal fixation of Pertrochanteric fractures. Objectives of the research were to compare the results of proximal femoral nail and dynamic hip screw in terms of functional mobility of the patients and the results would also be compared in terms of operating time, peri-operative blood loss, radiolo...
متن کاملShort proximal femoral nail fixation for trochanteric fractures.
PURPOSE To review outcomes of 100 patients who underwent short proximal femoral nailing for stable and unstable intertrochanteric fractures. METHODS Records of 62 men and 38 women aged 56 to 83 (mean, 67) years who underwent short proximal femoral nailing for stable peritrochanteric A1 (n=36), unstable peritrochanteric A2 (n=40), and unstable intertrochanteric A3 (n=24) fractures were reviewe...
متن کاملProximal Femoral Nail versus Dynamic Hip Screw Fixation for Trochanteric Fractures: A Meta-Analysis of Randomized Controlled Trials
BACKGROUND The purpose of this meta-analysis was to find out whether the proximal femoral nail was better than the dynamic hip screw in the treatment of trochanteric fractures with respect to operation time, blood transfusion, hospital stay, wound complications, number of reoperation, and mortality rate. METHODS All randomized controlled trials comparing proximal femoral nail and dynamic hip ...
متن کاملType II Intertrochanteric Fractures: Proximal Femoral Nailing (PFN) Versus Dynamic Hip Screw(DHS)
Background: Intertrochanteric fracture is one of the most common fractures of the hip especially in the elderly with osteoporotic bones, usually due to low-energy trauma like simple falls. Dynamic Hip Screw (DHS) is still considered the gold standard for treating intertrochanteric fractures by many. Not many studies compare the DHS with Proximal femoral nail (PFN), in Type II intertrochanteri...
