The results of surgical treatment of femoral intertrochanteric fractures

Abstract

We retrospectively analyzed the clinical and radiological obtain of 141 femoral intertrochanteric fractures of 139 patients who were followed-up at least one year. Average age was 59.8 years. In 48.2 percent of cases Richards' nail, in 19.8 percent of cases Smith-Petersen's nail and Mc Laughlin's plate, in 17.7 percent of cases Jewett's nail, in 7.8 percent of cases AO condyler plate, in 4.9 percent of cases Steinman's nail and in 1.4 percent of cases cancellous screws were used. The result were found very good in 41.8 percent, good in 31.2 percent, fair in 14.2 percent and poor in 12.8 percent. Among various implants, Richard's compression hip screw gave the best results. In the unstable fractures which medial displacement osteotomy was performed, Jewett's nail fixation was found to be less successful then the Richard's nail fixation.
