Radiological and functional outcome in unstable, osteoporotic trochanteric fractures stabilized with dynamic helical hip system
A dynamic hip screw (DHS) remains the implant of choice for stabilization of trochanteric fractures because of its favourable results and low rate of non-union or hardware failure, but complication rates of the DHS are higher in unstable and osteoporotic trochanteric fractures. The proponents of the dynamic helical hip system (DHHS) report that it has the potential to decrease the cut-out rates...
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...

متن کاملSeizures and intellectual outcome: clinico-radiological study of 30 Egyptian cases of tuberous sclerosis complex.
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES Tuberous sclerosis complex (TSC) is a multi-systemic disorder that involves primarily CNS, skin, kidney and heart. The aim of this study is to determine whether seizures type, interictal EEGs and tubers burden in MRI are correlated to seizure and intellectual outcome, and to identify the clinical risk factors for mental retardation and developing autism in these patien...
متن کاملProximal Femoral Nailing in Trochanteric Fractures
Trochanteric fractures, one of the commonest fractures treated by an orthopedic surgeon, typically occur in an elderly population with osteoporotic bones, mostly as a result of low velocity injury. The main stay of treatment for these fractures is fixation with screw–side plate device or intramedullary device. Recently, intra-medullary device is gaining popularity due to their distinct biomecha...
