Curative efficacy of surgical procedures for older patients with femoral neck fracture: a network meta-analysis and systematic review

open access: yesJournal of Orthopaedic Surgery and Research, 2022
Background Femoral neck fractures have a higher incidence in older people with poor prognosis, inducing serious social problems. Common treatment methods include total hip arthroplasty, bipolar hemiarthroplasty, double-screw fixation, multiple-screw ...

Minimally invasive dynamic hip screw for fixation of hip fractures [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Orthopaedics, 2008
We compared a minimally invasive surgical technique to the conventional (open approach) surgical technique used in fixation of hip fractures with the dynamic hip screw (DHS) device. Using a case-control design (44 cases and 44 controls), we tested the null hypothesis that there is no difference between the two techniques in the following outcome ...

Augmenting a dynamic hip screw with a calcium sulfate/hydroxyapatite biomaterial.

open access: yesMedical Engineering and Physics, 2021
Internal fixation failure in hip fractures can lead to reoperation. Calcium sulfate/hydroxyapatite (CaS/HA) is a biomaterial that can be used for augmenting fracture fixation.

Comparison of three different internal fixation implants in treatment of femoral neck fracture—a finite element analysis

open access: yesJournal of Orthopaedic Surgery and Research, 2019
Background Current surgical interventions for the femoral neck fracture are using either cannulated screws (CCS) or a single large screw at a fixed angle with a side-plate (i.e., a sliding hip screw, AKA dynamic hip screw, DHS).

Effect on health-related quality of life of the X-Bolt dynamic plating system versus the sliding hip screw for the fixation of trochanteric fractures of the hip in adults: the WHiTE Four randomized clinical trial

open access: yesThe Bone & Joint Journal, 2021
Aims Surgical treatment of hip fracture is challenging; the bone is porotic and fixation failure can be catastrophic. Novel implants are available which may yield superior clinical outcomes.

Treatment of stable intertrochanteric fractures of the femur with proximal femoral nail versus dynamic hip screw: a comparative study

open access: yesRevista Brasileira de Ortopedia
Objective: To evaluate and compare the clinical and radiological outcomes of patients with stable intertrochanteric fractures treated with proximal femoral nail vs. dynamic hip screw. Methods: Sixty patients with stable intertrochanteric fractures, aged

COMPARATIVE ANALYSIS OF SURGICAL OUTCOMES IN AO-OTA 31-A2 FRACTURES: TWO-HOLE VS. FOUR-HOLE DYNAMIC HIP SCREW [PDF]

open access: yesSanamed
Background: The choice of implant for the treatment of multifragmentary pertrochanteric fractures AO-OTA 31-A2 is complex, and the dynamic hip screw (DHS) can be used as a biomechanically safe and cost-effective option.

Technical Tip in Dynamic Hip Screw Plate Insertion [PDF]

open access: yesThe Annals of The Royal College of Surgeons of England, 2015
Dynamic hip screw procedures are performed commonly by orthopaedic registrars during their training. After successful screw insertion, trainees can face the challenge of sliding the plate on the screw without impinging against the bone, and the clearing of skin and soft tissues distally. We describe a technical tip where, after the screw is inserted to

Nailing of Intertrochanteric Fractures: Review on Pitfalls and Technical Tips

open access: yesJournal of Orthopaedics, Trauma and Rehabilitation, 2010
The authors describe the advantages and drawbacks of nailing over the dynamic hip screw for the fixation of hip fractures. The technical pitfalls of nailing and the tips to avoid failure of fixation in nailing have been discussed.

Measurement of Tip Apex Distance and Migration of Lag Screws and Novel Blade Screw Used for the Fixation of Intertrochanteric Fractures. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2017
Fixation with a dynamic hip screw (DHS) is one of the most common methods for stabilizing intertrochanteric fractures, except for unstable and reverse oblique fracture types.
