Abstract:
Objective To study the treatment of femoral intertrochanteric fractures by reduction without a traction table in a special position and fixation with proximal femoral nail antirotation (PFNA).Methods From May 2016 to May 2017,34 patients with femoral intertrochanteric fracture were treated with PFNA.They were 20 men and 14 women,from 36 to 89 years of age (average,69.9 years).The left side was affected in 15 cases and the right side in 19.By AO classification,there were 10 cases of type AO 31-A1,13 ones of type 31-A2,and 11 ones of type 3 l-A3.Two cases were complicated with other fractures,and 5 with internal system disease,3 of whom had more than 2 concomitant diseases.Preoperative deep venous thrombosis was found in 2 cases.Surgery was performed for them between 2 and 8 days after injury (average,3.7 days).Reduction was performed in a special position without a traction table.The duration of anesthesia,operation time,intraoperative hemorrhage,postoperative complications and hip function by Harris scores were recorded.Results For the 34 patients,the anesthesia time ranged from 57 to 85 min (average,67.5 min),the operation time ranged from 28 to 65 min (average,40.9 min),and the intraoperative hemorrhage from 80 to 150 mL (average,110.6 mL).They received effective follow-up for 6 to 12 months (average,8.4 months).All the fractures healed after 6 to 12 months(average,7.2 months).No failure of internal fixation was observed during follow-ups.By the Harris scores at the final follow-up,the function of the affected hip was rated as excellent in 9 cases,as good in 21 and as fair in 4,giving an excellent to good rate of 88.2％.Conclusion In the treatment of femoral intertrochanteric fractures,reduction without a traction table in a special position and PFNA fixation may reduce anesthesia time,leading to satisfactory clinical outcomes.
