Abstract:
Objective To discuss the clinical effects of hemiarthroplasty for the treatment of intertrochanteric comminuted fracture in aged patients.Methods From June 2006 to June 2010,91 cases with intertrochanteric comminuted fractures were treated by hemiarthroplasty using Zweymtüller long-stem cementless implant.There were 35 males and 56 females,with an average age of 81.2 years (range,75-94 years).There were fresh fractures in 75 cases and old fractures in 16 cases.According to classification of Evans-Jensen,there were 36 cases with type Ⅲ fracture and 55 with type Ⅳ.Osteoporosis was graded by Singh index,and there were 51 cases with level Ⅲ and 40 with level Ⅱ.The interval between injury and operation was 2-10 d (average,3.5 d).Results The surgery lasted 30-50 min (average,39 min).The blood loss was 320-610 ml (average,405 ml).The hospital stay was 14-21 d (average,16.5 d).Two cases who experienced with the infection of the respiratory system after operation,recovered through routine treatment.Thirty-seven cases were followed up for 15 to 38 months (average,24.5 months).According to the Harris score,the overall rate of excellent or good result was 83.8％ (31/37).Conclusion Hemiarthroplasty using Zweymüller long-stem cementless prosthesis is reliable option for intertrochanteric comminuted fracture in the aged patients.
