96 patients with intertrochanteric fractures were treated between 1.1.1986 - 31.3.1989 in S. B. Haseki Hospital Orthopaedics and Traumatology Department. 63 of the patients received DHS. 29 ( 46%) were femaIe, 34 (54%) male. Mean age was 64.3. According to Singh's classification of osteoporosis 25 (40%) of the cases were normal, 38 (60%) were osteoporotic. Radiologic evaluation was made by Jensen-Michaelsen's classification and 30 (47.7%) were classified as stable, 33 (52.4%) as unstable. The mean follow-up period was 11.2 months in 41 of the cases. Radiologic and clinical assesment with Merle D'aubigne score were pertormed during the controls. Radiologic results were very good and good in 33 (80%) of the cases and poor in 8 (20%). Clinical results were very good and good in 32 (78.1%) of the cases, fair in 3 (7.3%) and poor in 6 (14.6%).Dynamic hip screw is a succesfull procedure in intertrochanteric fractures when there is an appropriate indication and the proper technique is used.
