Application and Failure Experience of Intramedullary Nail and Locking Plate in the Treatment of Femoral Subtrochanteric Fracture

Journal Title: Journal of Orthopedics & Bone Disorders - Year 2017, Vol 1, Issue 1

Abstract

Background: The experience of intramedullary nail and locking plate in femoral subtrochanteric fracture were retrospectively analysed. Methods: The operation time, bleeding, hospitalization, fracture healing time, Harris function score and postoperative complications were summarized between two groups. Results: The operation time, bleeding, hospitalization, fracture healing time and Harris function score all made no significant differences between two groups. Three cases in nail group and two cases in plate group suffered fixation failure. Conclusion: Intramedullary nail must focus on fracture reduction and recovery of femoral medial support, whereas locking plate must strictly abide the MIPO technology.
