Abstract:
[Objective]To investigate the surgical techniques and clinical result of the treatment of subtrochanteric femoral fracture(SFF) with the reconstruction interlocking nail(RIN).[Method]A total of 40 cases(27 males and 13 females,at age ranged from 22 years to 75 years,mean 43.5 years) with SFF were fixed with RIN in our hospital from June 1998 to May 2005.The fractures were classified according to Seinsheimer,the type Ⅱ 5 cases,type Ⅰ 13,type Ⅳ 21 and type Ⅴ 1.33 patients sustained high-energy injury,and 7 low-energy Three cases were open fractures.[Result]The followed-up period ranged from 8 months to 2 years and 6 months with an average of i year and 8 months.The average time for bony union on xray was 4.2 months (from 3.2 to 6.5 months).According to HAN's scoring system there were 26 excellent cases,12 good cases and 2 fair cases.The excellent and good rate was 95%.There was no severe complications,such as incision infection, fixation failure,deformity or ischemic necrosis of femoral head.[Conclusion]RIN is an effective operation for treatment of SFF.This method has obvious advantages of reliable fixation,few complications and the high bone union rate.Meticulous surgical techniques is the key of success for the operation.
