[Objective]To evaluate the effect of treatment of unstable intertrochanteric fracture with dynamic condylar screw.[Method]Fifty-six cases of unstable intertrochanteric fractures were treated with typical ORIF (open reduction and internal fixation) with dynamic condylar screw from 2000 to 2004. According to the Evan's classification systems, there were 19 cases of Evan's Ⅲ fracture, 27 cases of Evan's Ⅳ fracture and 10 cases oblique reverse Evan'sⅤ fracture. The average period of follow-up was 10 months (8~15 months).[Result]All cases had union with average union time of 4 months, no coxae inversion, fixation failure and fracture nonunion. The satisfactory rate of function was 89%. [Conclusion]For unstable intertrochanteric fracture,including Evan's Ⅲ, Evan's Ⅳ and oblique reverse Evan'sⅤ fracture, using DCS is a good method to improve the clinical results.

Malocclusion,identified by the World Health Organization(WHO)as one of three major oral diseases,profoundly impacts the dental-maxillofacial functions,facial esthetics,and long-term development of~260 million children in China.Beyond its physical manifestations,malocclusion also significantly influences the psycho-social well-being of these children.Timely intervention in malocclusion can foster an environment conducive to dental-maxillofacial development and substantially decrease the incidence of malocclusion or reduce the severity and complexity of malocclusion in the permanent dentition,by mitigating the negative impact of abnormal environmental influences on the growth.Early orthodontic treatment encompasses accurate identification and treatment of dental and maxillofacial morphological and functional abnormalities during various stages of dental-maxillofacial development,ranging from fetal stages to the early permanent dentition phase.From an economic and societal standpoint,the urgency for effective early orthodontic treatments for malocclusions in childhood cannot be overstated,underlining its profound practical and social importance.This consensus paper discusses the characteristics and the detrimental effects of malocclusion in children,emphasizing critical need for early treatment.It elaborates on corresponding core principles and fundamental approaches in early orthodontics,proposing comprehensive guidance for preventive and interceptive orthodontic treatment,serving as a reference for clinicians engaged in early orthodontic treatment.
