Intertrochanteric fracture of the hip
The American Journal of Surgery, 1957Abstract 1. 1. The mortality and morbidity following intertrochanteric fractures of the femur appear to be higher than is generally recognized. 2. 2. Although the functional end result is better in younger patients, excellent functional results can be obtained in the eighth and ninth decades of life. 3. 3.

Management of intertrochanteric fractures of the femur
The American Journal of Surgery, 1959Abstract A review has been made of 183 intertrochanteric fractures which have been treated in an eight and a half year period on the Combined Fracture Service of the New York Hospital and the Hospital for Special Surgery at the Cornell University Medical School, in an effort to evaluate the various methods of treatment in use since 1950.

Stability of Intertrochanteric Femur Fractures
Journal of Orthopaedic Trauma, 2023Summary: The stability of intertrochanteric fractures depends upon multiple factors including the fracture displacement, location and pattern, the type of fixation used for stabilization, and the loading that the fracture undergoes postfixation.

Treatment of intertrochanteric fractures of the femur
The American Journal of Surgery, 1945the three main methods of 3. Internal fixation is usuahy the method of choice because it aIIows free motion of the Iegs and frequent change of position in bed and out. At times, however, intertrochanteric fractures are so badIy comminuted and the condition of the patient such that it is impossibIe to use interna fixation.

Intertrochanteric fracture of an arthrodesed hip
The Journal of Bone and Joint Surgery. British volume, 2007We report the case of a 74-year-old woman who sustained an intertrochanteric fracture of the femoral neck in a previously arthrodesed hip. The hip arthrodesis had been performed 53 years earlier to treat septic arthritis. The fracture was treated successfully using a double-plating technique with 4.5 mm titanium reconstruction plates.

Archives of Surgery, 1975
A review was made of 244 intertrochanteric fractures of the hip. The complications of fixation were examined; nail penetration, plate separation, or bending or breaking of the device. Factors associated with fewer such complications were (1) stable (noncomminuted) fractures, (2) nails that can accomodate to varus, (3) placement of the nail tip more ...

Irreducible Intertrochanteric Fractures of the Femur
Clinical Orthopaedics and Related Research, 1997A retrospective study during a 3-year interval revealed that four of 112 patients had intertrochanteric fractures that were irreducible by the usual closed manipulation and traction techniques at the time of surgery. Each of these patients' preoperative radiographs showed a fracture line that bisected the lesser trochanter and was relatively ...

Femoral neck fracture following intertrochanteric fracture
The Journal of Arthroplasty, 1996Four patients with femoral neck fracture following healed intertrochanteric fracture were evaluated retrospectively. This situation is a rare occurrence with a current literature review documenting only 15 cases. Patient charts and radiographs were retrospectively reviewed to evaluate the period from initial injury to definitive treatment for the ...

Unstable Intertrochanteric Fractures of the Femur
Clinical Orthopaedics and Related Research, 1973Despite their frequent occurrence, intertrochanteric fractures of the femur have received relatively little attention in orthopedic literature. The rather consistent achievement of fracture union from surgical or non-surgical methods of treatment and the rare incidence of avascular necrosis of the femoral head have perhaps resulted in a complacent ...
