Background: The incidence of inter-trochanteric fractures the femur is very high in elderly population. world-wide all hip around 402 per 100000 and Intertrochanteric fracture estimated to be 171 2019. All operative conditions were different during covid phase. We needed early ambulation our patients for a faster recovery avoid long stay hospitals. Methods: 30 with unstable intertrochanteric op...

Per-trochanteric (4 Part) fractures of femur are commonest in elderly people. The incidence is expected to increase in the coming years, with an ageing population resulting in a greater number of traumatic injuries in patients with osteoporotic bone. DHS fixation is gold standard modality for treatment of such fractures. Various implants used for such fractures are 1) DHS Sliding compression sc...

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Fixation of unstable trochanteric fractures is challenging. Application of a circumferential wire may facilitate bone contact and avoid postoperative fracture displacement. However, the use of circumferential wires remains controversial due to possible disturbance of the blood supply to the underlying bone. We evaluated the results of applied circumferential wires, concen...

The goal of this study was to compare the outcomes of unstable trochanteric fractures treated with the InterTan nail (Smith & Nephew, Memphis, Tennessee) and the Proximal Femoral Nail Antirotation (PFNA-II) (Synthes, Solothurn, Switzerland). A total of 132 consecutive patients with unstable trochanteric fractures of the femur were enrolled in the study. The only intervention was InterTan nail o...

ABSTRACT The Long Trochanteric Fixation Nail (LTFN) is a titanium alloy cephalomedullary nail indicated for treatment of proximal femur fractures, including intertrochanteric and subtrochanteric varieties. Between 03/01/2002, and 10/01/2003, 211 consecutive fractures classified either as “intertrochanteric” or “subtrochanteric” were treated surgically at involved study centers. Fifty of these f...

BACKGROUND The Proximal Femoral Nail Antirotation (PFNA) system for treatment of intertrochanteric fractures is currently widely applied worldwide. However, even though the PFNA has produced good clinical outcomes, a poor introduction technique with an inappropriate entry point can cause surgical complications. Some researchers suggest improving clinical outcomes by modifying the entry point, b...
