RESULTS OF INTERTROCHANTERIC FRACTURES FIXED WITH DYNAMIC HIP SCREW FIXATION
Journal Title: Indian Journal of Scientific Research - Year 2016, Vol 7, Issue 1
Abstract
Numerous internal fixation devices have been used to stabilize intertrochanteric fracturesWe have analyzed the results of the intertrochanteric fractures treated with dynamic hip screw fixation. 33 patients (13 males, 20 females) were included. Range of age was 50-90 years, right side involved in 21 cases whereas left side in 12 cases and classified according to Boyd and griffin classification system. All patients were investigated and treated with dynamic hip screw fixations. Patients were followed up at regular intervals. Thirty-three patients of intertrochanteric fractures were included in the study with an average age group of 70 years. The union occurred in 31 fractures and 2 non-unions with screw cut through anteriorly. Seventeen patients had some amount of shortening. Six patients had short limb gait, 5 patients were using a cane on ipsilateral side for assisted walking. The results were analyzed using the Harris Hip Scoring System.
