Evaluation of Outcome of Treatment of Intertrochanteric Fracture with Dynamic Hip Screw (DHS)
Ibrahim Cardiac Medical Journal, 2020 Background & Objective: Intertrochanteric femur fractures are becoming increasingly common as our population ages. Effective treatment strategies that result in high rates of union of these fractures and low rates of complication are important.

Osteosynthesis of femoral neck fractures: dynamic hip screw (DHS) or mini-invasive Targon FN system?
Traumatology and Orthopedics of Russia, 2015 Objectives: to investigate the long-term outcomes of femoral neck fractures that were surgically fixed using various types of extramedullary implants in patients aged 65 years and younger. Material and methods: We analyzed the clinical results of surgical treatment of femoral neck fractures by extramedullary osteosynthesis in 94 patients aged 38 to 65 ...

Osteosynthesis of Intracapsular Femoral Neck Fractures by Dynamic Hip Screw (DHS) Fixation [PDF]
Acta chirurgiae orthopaedicae et traumatologiae Cechoslovaca, 2009 The treatment of femoral neck fractures shows a relatively high number of poor outcomes, usually due to late complications, such as avascular necrosis of the femoral head or pseudoarthrosis. The latter may develop when the osteosynthesis of osteoporotic bone fails. The aim of this retrospective study was to evaluate a group of patients treated by osteo-

Surgical Update: International Journal of Surgery and Orthopedics, 2018 Introduction: Intertrochanteric femur fractures are common in the elderly people. The frequency of these fractures has increased primarily due to the increasing life span and more sedentary life style brought on by urbanization. The incidence of Intertrochanteric femur fractures is more in the female population compared to the male due to osteoporosis.

Orthopedics & Traumatology, 1993 A 35-year-old healthy female patient sustained an ipsilateral intracapsular fracture of the femoral neck and fracture of the femoral shaft in a car accident. This was successfully treated by DHS fixation.Four and a half years after the operation, DHS was removed, and a new subcapital fracture of the femoral neck was found by X-ray one week after ...

South Eastern European Journal of Public HealthHip fractures, particularly intertrochanteric fractures, pose significant challenges due to their association with disability, mortality, and economic burden, especially among the elderly population. Trochanteric fractures primarily occur due to low-energy falls, which are more frequent in elder individuals with age-related impairments in vision ...

The X-Bolt: A Biomechanical Study with this New Design Variation of the Dynamic Hip Screw (DHS) [PDF]
Journal of Bioengineering and Biomedical Sciences, 2012 Objective:The objective of this study was to test a newly developed implant for the treatment of intertrochanteric fractures, the X-Bolt, against the current gold standard, the Dynamic Hip Screw (DHS), by comparing the amount of energy required to cause failure of both of them.
