Proximal femoral locking plate versus dynamic hip screw for unstable intertrochanteric femoral fractures.
PURPOSE To compare the outcome in patients who underwent surgery for unstable intertrochanteric femoral fractures using the proximal femoral locking plate versus the dynamic hip screw (DHS). METHODS 15 men and 5 women aged 32 to 78 (mean, 55) years were randomised to the proximal femoral locking plate group, whereas 14 men and 6 women aged 38 to 75 (mean, 59) years were randomised to the conv...
متن کاملLetter to the editor: Proximal femoral locking plate versus dynamic hip screw for unstable intertrochanteric femoral fractures.
To the Editor: We read with interest the article by Dhamangaonkar et al.1 May the authors clarify the following points. 1. A dynamic hip screw (DHS) with fixed angle locking screws reduces the risk of implant failure, particularly for patients with osteoporotic bone or less stable fracture configurations.2 Why did the authors compare a proximal femoral locking plate with a non-locking 135o DHS?...
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 کاملProximal femoral locking compression plate for proximal femoral fractures.
PURPOSE To review short-term outcomes of proximal femoral locking compression plate (PF-LCP) fixation for proximal femoral fractures in terms of postoperative complications and failure rates. METHODS Medical records of 21 men and 5 women aged 22 to 85 (mean, 49.7) years who underwent internal fixation with the PF-LCP for proximal femoral fractures were reviewed. Younger patients (mean age, 38...
