Dynamic hip screw: does side make a difference? Effects of clockwise torque on the right and left DHS

Injury, 2002
A study was performed to assess the effect of clockwise rotational torque onto the fracture configuration in unstable intertrochanteric fractures. The premise is that rotational torque in the sagittal plane imparted during screw insertion can lead to a potentially unstable construct in LEFT-sided DHS fixations when compared to the RIGHT-sided ones ...

[Analysis of the treatment failures for intertrochanteric fractures with dynamic hip screw (DHS)].

Zhongguo gu shang = China journal of orthopaedics and traumatology, 2010
To analyze the reasons and related factors of failures in the treatment of intertrochanteric fracture with dynamic hip screw (DHS) and to increase the therapeutic level of intertrochanteric fracture.All the 78 cases of intertrochanteric fractures were treated with dynamic hip screws from Dec. 1998 to Dec.

Dynamic hip screw (DHS) results in intertrochanteric fractures

2014
Sağlık Bakanlığı Haseki Hastanesi Ortopedi ve Travmatoloji Kliniği'nde 1.1.1986-31.3.1989 tarihleri arasında 96 hasta intertrokanterik kırık tanısı ile tedavi edildi. Bunlardan 63'üne DHS uygulandı. Olguların 29'u (%46) kadın, 34'ü (%54) erkekti. Yaş ortalaması 64.3 idi.

Mechanical failure of Dynamic Hip Screw (DHS) fixation in intertrochanteric fracture of the femur.

The Medical journal of Malaysia, 2003
We studied 60 intertrochanteric fractures of the femur fixed with Dynamic Hip Screw (DHS). There were 10 cases (16.7%) with cutting-out of device through femoral head and neck. Stable fracture pattern, postero-inferior and central position of screw in the femoral neck and head produced high percentage of good result, whereas anterior or superior ...

[DHS (Dynamic Hip Screw) osteosynthesis in an atypical situation].

Acta chirurgiae orthopaedicae et traumatologiae Cechoslovaca, 2003
The author describes a spiral fracture of the distal femur with a fragmented zone that occurred in the place of the distal end of a splint applied because of the previous treatment of a subtrochanteric fractures by osteosynthesis. Atypical approach including a DHS implant was used to treat the spiral fracture.

Influence of implant design on the method of failure for three implants designed for use in the treatment of intertrochanteric fractures: the dynamic hip screw (DHS), DHS blade and X-BOLT

European Journal of Trauma and Emergency Surgery, 2013
The dynamic hip screw (DHS) has been widely adopted as the implant of choice in the treatment of intertrochanteric fractures. There have been attempts over the years to improve on the DHS lag screw design in order to reduce failure in the form of "cut out".

[The DHS (dynamic hip screw) buttress plate in the management of unstable proximal femoral fractures].

Schweizerische medizinische Wochenschrift, 1993
The DHS-implant system is a technically simple and widely used operative treatment modality for pertrochanteric fractures of the femur. In unstable 4-part fractures rotation of the head and neck fragment around the lag screw and significant impaction might lead to lateralisation of the greater trochanter and therefore to marked shortening.

[DHS (Dynamic Hip Screw)-osteosynthesis in the management of femoral fractures in the hip region and the place of this method in the treatment of such injuries].

Magyar traumatologia, ortopedia, kezsebeszet, plasztikai sebeszet, 1993
In the last four years we performed 182 osteosynthesizes with Dynamic Hip Screw, besides other methods on the fractures of the hip region. Here we are presenting the evaluation of our results, which, regarding the international scene, fall into the medium category. The operations were performed within three days after the injuries in 61 per cent of our

[Evaluation of a 2D fluoroscopy-based navigation system for insertion of the dynamic hip screw (DHS): an experimental study].

RoFo : Fortschritte auf dem Gebiete der Rontgenstrahlen und der Nuklearmedizin, 2011
Dynamic hip screw (DHS) insertion for the fixation of lateral femoral neck fractures is an accepted surgical treatment method. A computer-assisted planning and navigation system based on 2D fluoroscopy has been developed for guidewire insertion in order to perform screw placement.
