A study of results of fixation of pertrochanteric femur fractures with dynamic hip screw (DHS) & comparision with past studies [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Journal of Orthopaedics Sciences, 2019
Background and Objectives: Trochanteric fracture is a leading cause of hospital admissions in elderly people. The number of such admissions is a rise because of increasing life span & sedentary habits. Conservative methods of treatment result in malunion with shortening and limitation of hip movement as well as complications of prolonged immobilization
