Abstract:
[Objective]To discuss the application of the short reconstruction intramedullary nail in treating intertrochanteric fracture.[Method]From Jan 2000 to Aug 2004,35 patients(14 males and 21 females)with femoral intertrochanteric fracture were treated by short reconstruction intramedullary nail.Various data were analyzed for evaluating the characteristics and curative effect.[Result]The mean incision length was 3.5 cm,the average duration of operation and intraoperative X-ray fluoroscopy was 65 min and 0.16 min,respectively.The mean blood loss was 50 ml.None of the complications occurred postoperatively,including nonunion,deep venous thrombosis or infection of the incision etc.except only 1 malunion due to inappropriate surgical skill.Internal fixation loosening didn't appear in 97% of the patients.[Conclusion]Using short reconstruction intramedullary nail to treat intertrochanteric fracture can obtain satisfing outcomes of different concerns,such as time-saving,small incision,few complications,quick recovery and so on,which indicates that it should be the first choice for the treatment of femoral intertrochanteric fracture.
