Introduction: Predictors of fracture risk differ between cervical and trochanteric hip fractures. The aim of this experimental study was therefore to investigate whether two-dimensional (2D) finite element (FE) models, generated from standard radiographs, are able to predict and discriminate fracture types, originating from a simulated fall on the greater trochanter. Methods: A semi-automatic c...
OBJECTIVE To evaluate factors associated with revision of dynamic hip screw implant in patients undergoing the procedure for the fixation of intertrochanteric fractures. METHODS The retrospective study was conducted at the Aga Khan University Hospital, Karachi, and comprised records of patients who had undergone dynamic hip screw fixation surgery between 2008 and 2012. Medical records and dat...
BACKGROUND Greater thickness of the tissue extending laterally from the greater trochanter has been associated with a lower risk of hip fracture in women. The effect of trochanteric soft tissue thickness on the risk of incident hip fracture has not been evaluated in men. METHODS We measured trochanteric soft tissue thickness by dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry for all incident hip fracture ca...
Inter trochanteric fractures or Hip fractures are devastating injuries that most commonly affect the elderly and have a tremendous impact on both the health care system and society in general. The objective is to study the age and sex incidence of intertrochanteric fracture of femur, to study the quality of life after hemiarthroplasty in intertrochanteric fractures and to study the morbidity an...
Distally anchored uncemented modular tapered porous stems are often the preferred treatment in total hip arthroplasty revisions and failed subtrochanteric fractures. These conditions mainly affect elderly osteoporotic patients, with an increased risk of later fractures below the well-fixated implant. Treatment in secondary fractures with long looking plates is the recommended treatment, where s...
The Gamma Nail is the latest advance in the treatment of trochanteric fractures based on intramedullary nailing principles during closed procedures. Its design is based on Küntscher's Y-nail and locking intramedullary (IM) nails. This paper reports the results from the first-ever series of 121 patients operated between 1988 and 1990. They were followed until bone union was achieved. The mean pa...
PURPOSE To compare patients with or without intra-operative fracture during cementless bipolar hemiarthroplasty. METHODS Records of 76 men and 202 women who underwent cementless bipolar hemiarthroplasty for femoral neck fractures were reviewed. Patients with and without intra-operative fractures and patients with different types of intra-operative fractures were compared. RESULTS Two men an...
BACKGROUND Many different surgical techniques have been described for the internal fixation of extracapsular hip fractures. OBJECTIVES To compare different aspects of surgical technique used in operations for internal fixation of extracapsular hip fractures in adults. SEARCH STRATEGY We searched the Cochrane Bone, Joint and Muscle Trauma Group Specialised Register (January 2008), the Cochra...
BACKGROUND The most common mechanical failure in the internal fixation of trochanteric hip fractures is the cut-out of the sliding screw through the femoral head. Several factors that influence this complication have been suggested, but there is no consensus as to the relative importance of each factor. The purpose of this study was to analyse the cut-out complication with respect to the follow...
It is uncommon for femoral neck fractures to occur after proximal femoral hardware removal because age, osteoporosis, and technical error are often noted as the causes for this type of fracture. However, excessive alcohol consumption and failure to comply with protected weight bearing for 6 weeks increases the risk of femoral neck fractures.This article describes a case of a 57-year-old man wit...
