- PURPOSE
The primary purpose of this study was to demonstrate that the TRIGENâ„¢ INTERTAN nail (InterTAN) could show better clinical outcome compared to the proximal femoral nail antirotation 2 (PFNA2) for treatment of intertrochanteric fracture in the elderly.
MATERIALS AND METHODS
Between March 2009 and December 2013, 164 patients with intertrochanteric fractures who met our inclusion and exclusion criteria were enrolled in this study. Evaluation variables, including operation time, blood loss during the operation, incidence of perioperative complications, clinical results at the last follow-up, and radiographic findings were assessed for comparison of the 2 implants.
RESULTS
Intraoperative lateral wall fracture was significantly higher in the PFNA2 group (p<0.05) and tip apex distance was significantly higher in the InterTAN group (p<0.05). Sliding of the proximal fragment at the last follow-up was significantly higher in the PFNA2 group. However, there was no significant difference in union rate, time to union, postoperative complications, and clinical outcomes at the last follow-up between the 2 groups.
CONCLUSION
Based on these data, clinical outcomes at the last follow-up were equivalent between InterTAN and PFNA2.

- PURPOSE
To evaluate the radiologic, clinical results between who had intertrochanteric fracture, treated with Compression Hip Screw (CHS) and Proximal Femoral Nail Antirotation (PFNA).
MATERIALS AND METHODS
We retrospectively reviewed each 36 and 48 patients of intertrochanteric fracture which were treated with CHS or PFNA by one surgeon from January 2005 to June 2009. We evaluated mean operation time, amount of bleeding, radiologic results, and the clinical outcomes with the mobility score of Parker and Palmer, social function scoring system.
RESULTS
The mean operation time, amount of bleeding were less in the PFNA group, there were 116.7 min, 486.1 ml for the CHS group versus 87.7 min, 289.6 ml for the PFNA group. The radiologic results were not significantly different. Decrease of mobility score of Parker and Palmer, social function score were similar. Proximal migration of leg screw and perforation of femoral head was 2 case and deep infection was 1 cases in CHS group.
CONCLUSION
There were no significant differences that are clinical and radiological results in treatment of intertrochanteric fracture using the CHS and PFNA. But PFNA is less invasive device than CHS, therefore it may be useful device in elderly patients.

Abstract

- PURPOSE
To compare of results between open interlocking intramedullary nailing combined with cerclage wiring and closed interlocking intramedullary nailing in treatment of femoral shaft comminuted fracture, we reviewed retrospectively 62 femoral shaft fractures.
MATERIALS AND METHODS
We reviewed retrospectively 62 femoral shaft comminuted fractures, who had been followed up for a minimum one year including Winquist-Hansen classification II, III, IV from January 1996 to December 2002. The group I include the patients who treated with closed interlocking intramedullary nailing. The group II include the patients who treated with open interlocking intramedullary nailing combined with cerclage wiring.
RESULTS
The average bone union time was 18.6 weeks in group I, 27.6 weeks in group II. The complication included 3 delayed unions, 1 nonunion and shortening of more than two centimeters in 1 patents in group I. In group II, The complication included 2 infections, 7 delayed unions and 3 nonunions.
CONCLUSION
We can use open interlocking intramedullary nailing with cerclage wiring in some femur shaft comminuted fractures, but there are many problems and complications. So we must consider it carefully before using this method.
