- PURPOSE
To evaluate the results of fracture fixation between using Proximal Femoral Nail and using Proximal Femoral Nail A and to analyze the effectiveness of proximal femoral nail A. MATERIALS AND METHODS We reviewed 32 patients who suffered from intertrochanteric fracture in our hospital, which were 19 cases of PFN and 13 cases of PFNA. Retrospectively we evaluated mean operation time, amount of bleeding, beginning of ambulation, average union period, changes of neck shaft angle and complication on set of telephone interview and OPD. We also evaluated postoperative capability of function and mobility using 'Social function score' and 'Mobility score'. RESULTS PFNA showed shorter mean operation time, less bleeding, shorter average union period, earlier ambulation and less change of neck shaft angle than PFN. Although they didn't show statistical difference, postoperative capability of function and mobility showed statistical and mathematical difference on each group. CONCLUSION PFNA showed better results of postoperative function and mobility and less complications than PFN. So treatment using PFNA is better method than that of PFN.

Abstract
- PURPOSE
To evaluate and compare the clinical and radiological outcome of bipolar hemiarthroplasty and second generation intramedullary nailing for elderly unstable peritrochanteric femoral fracutre. MATERIALS AND METHODS From January 2000 to July 2004, 56 elderly unstable peritrochanteric fractures were treated with a bipolar hemiarthroplasty (34 cases) or a ITST intramedullary nailing (22 cases). The fractures were classified using the OTA/AO classification. The clinical results were evaluated by walking capability, hip joint pain, and thigh pain. The radiological results were evaluated on the basis of the radiographs at follow-up. RESULTS In bipolar hemiarthroplasty group, The mean operation time was 134 minute, the mean blood loss was 648 ml. In intramedullary nailing group, The mean operation time was 103 minute, the mean blood loss was 386 ml. There were no different walking ability between prefracture and postoperative state in 22 cases (65%) of bipolar hemiarthroplasty group, 18 cases (80%) of intramedullary nailing group respectively. There were 5 cases (14%) hip joint pain in bipolar hemiarthroplasty group and 4 cases (18%) thigh pain in ITST intramedullary nailing group postoperatively. CONCLUSION Comparing the operation time, blood loss, and walking ability, ITST intramedullary nailing group show superior clinical outcomes than bipolar hemiarthroplasty group. However, The effort for decreasing postoperative thigh pain might be required.
