Anatomical images of the front (A) and back (B); the black lines indicated the muscles. One cable in “figure‐of‐eight” and another looped over the lesser trochanter were across the muscles to maintain reduction and resist traction. ABSTRACT Objective Intertrochanteric fractures (IF) in the elderly are often complicated by osteoporosis and high rates of

By highlighting the significance of calcar femorale injury and other risk factors, our findings can guide clinical doctors to closely monitor patients or design better internal fixation devices and surgical methods (such as DHS with anti‐rotational screw or medial buttress plating) to reduce the incidence of postoperative complications.

Background: The most common implant used for intertrochanteric fractures is the dynamic hip screw (DHS). For the treatment of unstable fractures, cephalo-medullary devices are recommended, especially in cases where medial buttressing is absent.

A study to assess proximal femoral nailing versus dynamic hip screw device in surgical management of intertrochanteric fractures: a comparative study [PDF]
Background: The incidence of inter trochanteric fracture is expected to have doubled by 2040. Inter trochanteric fractures account for about 45% to 50% of all hip fractures in the elderly populationand out of these, near about 50% to 60% are classified ...

ABSTRACT Background and Objectives Metastatic bone disease (MBD) is a common complication of primary cancers and is typically managed surgically. Overall health status and nutritional optimization are essential in surgical outcomes. The objective of this study was to report the intersectionality of previously studied laboratory, imaging, and clinical ...

Dynamic Hip Screw Compared to Condylar Blade Plate in the Treatment of Unstable Fragility Intertrochanteric Fractures [PDF]
Dynamic hip screw (DHS) fixation is considered standard treatment for most intertrochanteric fractures. However, excessive sliding at the fracture site and medialisation of femoral shaft may lead in fixation failure.
