متن کاملSubcapital femoral neck fracture after fixation of an intertrochanteric fracture with a proximal femoral nail: a report of two cases.
Subcapital femoral neck fractures are a rare complication after fixation of an intertrochanteric fracture with a proximal femoral nail. We report 2 such cases where the patients had severe osteoporosis, based on Singh's index and pathological findings. In one case there was a technical error leading to a tip-apex distance of more than 20 mm, but osteoporosis appeared to be a more significant ca...
متن کاملEfficacy of femoral nail anti-rotation of helical blade in unstable intertrochanteric fracture.
OBJECTIVE We analyzed the comparative efficacy and long-term prognosis with proximal femoral nail anti-rotation (PFNA) and dynamic hip screw (DHS) for the treatment of unstable intertrochanteric fractures, retrospectively. We determined the independent risk factors to guide subsequent surgery and improve the long-term quality of life. PATIENTS AND METHODS We selected 165 patients suffering fr...
