Objective To analyze the operative therapeutic effect of proximal femoral nail antirotation blade (PFNA),dynamic hip screw (DHS) and femoral proximal locking compression plate (LCP)internal fixation in treatment with femoral intertrochanteric fracture of the aged.Methods Seventy-three aged patients with femoral intertrochanteric fracture were divided into 3 groups according to different internal fixation method:PFNA group (30 cases) was treated with PFNA internal fixation,DHS group (22 cases) was treated with DHS internal Fxation,LCP group (21 cases) was treated with LCP internal fixation.The operative time,intraoperative bleeding volume,fracture healing time,bad limb load time and hip joint function score were compared among the 3 groups.Results The operative time in PFNA group,DHS group and LCP group was (73.9 ± 8.5),(82.3 ± 10.6),(79.5 ± 11.2) min,there was statistical difference between PFNA group and DHS group (P ＜ 0.05),but there was no statistical difference between PFNA group and LCP group (P＞ 0.05).The intraoperative bleeding volume in PFNA group was significantly lower than that in DHS group and LCP group [(160.2 ± 15.6) ml vs.(208.4 ± 20.2) and (216.6 ml ± 24.9) ml],there was statistical difference (P ＜0.05).The fracture healing time and bad limb load time in PFNA group were significantly shorter than those in DHS group and LCP group [(97.4 ± 5.8) d vs.(101.2 ± 4.2),(110.0 ±8.3) d and (78.0 ±5.4) d vs.(85.9 ±7.6),(90.8±6.0) d],furtbermore DHS group were significantly shorter than those in LCP group,there were statistical differences among the 3 groups (P ＜ 0.05).There were no statistical differences in excellent and good rate of hip joint function score among the 3 groups (P ＞ 0.05).Conclusions PFNA is the ideal therapeutic method for femoral intertrochanteric fracture of the aged.It has better curative effect compared to the DHS and LCP,and has less surgical trauma and can shorten the recovery time.
