Effects of Hip Geometry on Fracture Patterns of Proximal Femur
Background: Some studies have previously shown that geometry of proximal femur can affect the probability of fracture and type of fracture. It happens since the geometry of the proximal femur determines how a force is applied to its different parts. In this study, we have compared proximal femur’s geometric characteristics in femoral neck (FNF), intertrochanteric (ITF) and Subtrochanteric (ST...
متن کاملIntertrochanteric Femur Fracture Stability
INTRODUCTION Intertrochanteric (IT) femur fractures are common in elderly patients who are often in poor general health. Intertrochanteric fractures are classified as stable or unstable, taking into account fracture morphology and involvement of the posteromedial calcar. The purpose of this study is to determine whether IT fracture stability can be used as a marker for general health or as a pr...
متن کاملTrochanteric Fracture of the Femur
So says the Psalmist, and how forcibly do his words strike us when coinsidlering the conditions which affect the aged. These constitute social, medical and surgical problems with which at present we are not keeping pace. Of the surgical problems, none is more challenging or more vorthy of thoughlt than the trochanteric fracture of the femur-the fracture of the twilight of life. This very specia...
متن کاملOpen vertical sagittal fracture patella with fracture lateral condyle femur: approach to a rare injury
Patellar fracture is a relatively uncommon fracture especially the vertical sagittal type. In cases of high energy trauma injury, it is usually associated with fracture of ipsilateral distal femur or proximal tibia. However, the combination of vertical sagittal fracture patella and ipsilateral fracture lateral condyle is very rare. This necessitates judicious diagnosis and appropriate managemen...
