Comparative study of management of intertrochanteric fracture by dynamic hip screw and proximal femoral nailing [PDF]

open access: yes, 2021
Background: The purpose of the present study is to verify the theoretical advantages of the intramedullary device over the dynamic hip screw devices and also whether it actually alters the eventual functional outcome of the patient.          Methods: The

Treatment of Intertrochanteric Fracture With Dynamic Hip Screw Versus Proximal Femoral Nail [PDF]

open access: yesZagazig University Medical Journal
Background: Intertrochanteric fractures are of the most common fractures encountered in orthopedic practice. Several devices have been developed to obtain accurate reduction and stable surgical fixation. Dynamic hip screw (DHS) and Proximal femoral nail (

Dynamic hip screw versus DHS blade

open access: yes, 2011
We biomechanically investigated whether the standard dynamic hip screw (DHS) or the DHS blade achieves better fixation in bone with regard to resistance to pushout, pullout and torsional stability.

A Review of Tip Apex Distance (TAD) in Dynamic Hip Screw (DHS) Fixation of Femoral Fractures

open access: yes, 2014
Femoral neck fractures commonly occur in elderly osteoporotic females, and include extra-capsular fractures (intertrochanteric and pertrochanteric), and usually treated with the Dynamic Hip Screw (DHS).

Intrapelvic Protrusion of a Dynamic Hip Screw

open access: yes, 2006
The sliding hip screw, sometimes called the dynamic hip screw (DHS) has been a successful method for treating hip fractures. Nevertheless, mechanical complications of this system have been reported from time to time.

Error replication as an instructional strategy in simulation‐based procedural learning

open access: yesMedical Education, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Errors are an inevitable part of clinical learning, yet procedural training commonly emphasises error avoidance. This study examined the effect of deliberate replication of predefined procedural errors (Error Replication; ER), compared with error avoidance training (EAT), on post‐test performance, retention and transfer in surgical ...

Treatment Trade‐Offs and Choices for Femoral Fractures: A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis

open access: yesOrthopaedic Surgery, Volume 17, Issue 5, Page 1298-1313, May 2025.
This review examines the trade‐offs between surgical intervention and traction therapy for adult and elderly patients with femoral fractures and surgical contraindications, particularly in resource‐limited settings. While intramedullary nailing may offer better clinical outcomes, traction therapy is often preferred due to limited surgical resources ...

Minimally invasive dynamic hip screw for fixation of hip fractures.

open access: yes, 2009
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.

“Bad Things Happen in Philadelphia”: Managing Stigma and Threats in the Wake of False Criminal Accusations

open access: yesSymbolic Interaction, Volume 49, Issue 3, Page 518-539, August 2026.
In the aftermath of the 2020 U.S. election, the boundary between activism and extremism blurred, with election officials reporting violent threats and false accusations of election fraud. From a symbolic interactionist perspective, these attacks provide a unique lens for examining the consequences of being falsely labeled a criminal.
