Methods Thirty patients with femoral intertroehanteric fractures treated with DHS internal fixation were enrolled in the study. The classification of fracture, operative methods, postoperative treatment and therapeutic results were assessed. The mean follow-up period was one year. Results All the patients completed the follow-up. Fractures healed up without coxa vara, external rotation or shortening deformity of the lower extremity in all patients. Good hip joint function was obtained in 86.7% of the patients. Conclusion DHS internal fixation is an ideal method for the treatment of femoral intertrochanteric fractures.
