Methods：59 cases with Evans Ⅲ type of intertrochanteric fracture between June, 1999 to July, 2006 were admitted in our department. 38 patients were complicated with cardiovascular diseases, such as hypertension and arrhythmia. All the cases were operated. Results：58 cases were operated successfully. One died of pulmonary interstitial fibrosis. Grade data of different age brackets indicated that early infective complications had apparent differences between the operation and the control group. Compared with the control group, the operation group had benefits such as fewer complications, especially the infective complications, and incidence of lower extremities venous thrombosis, and the results showed notable differences. Conclusion：In elderly patients with Evans Ⅲ type of intertrochanteric fracture, the incidence of pulmonary infection was the highest. Venous thrombosis in lower extremities was the most serious complication. So it will be helpful to perform the quadriceps femories function exercise. The postoperative effect is also related with the operation approach.展开更多

Methods...Objective: To compare the clinical efficacy of artificial femoral head replacement and Proximal femoral nail antirotation (PFNA) in the treatment of unstable femoral intertrochanteric fractures in the elderly. Methods: This study retrospectively analyzed 60 elderly patients with unstable intertrochanteric fractures treated with PFNA and artificial femoral head replacement from 2015.06 to 2018.06, of which 34 were in the PFNA group (Group A) and 26 in the artificial femoral head replacement group (Group B). Statistical analysis of relevant surgical indicators such as surgical time, intraoperative blood loss, postoperative blood transfusion, postoperative time to landing, postoperative infection rate, hospital stay, number of secondary operations, postoperative VAS score, and postoperative Hip function score comparison. Results: All 60 patients were followed up for 1 - 24 months. Compared with the artificial femoral head replacement group, the operation time of PFNA group was shorter, the blood loss during operation was less, and the difference was statistically significant (P 0.05). Conclusion: The hip joint function and pain scores of the artificial femoral head replacement group in the early and follow-up periods are better than those of the PFNA group. The artificial femoral head replacement is more suitable for the treatment of elderly unstable intertrochanteric fractures.展开更多

This study aimed to assess the differences in proximal femoral geometry parameters between patients with femoral neck fractures and patients with intertrochanteric fractures to provide guidance for individualized customized prosthesis and accurate reconstruction of proximal femurs in elderly Chinese patients. Methods： We retrospectively studied the electronic medical records of 198 elderly patients over 65 years of age who were admitted to the orthopedic department with hip fractures between January 2017 and December 2017 in The Third Hospital, Hebei Medical University. Age, fracture site, gender, and proximal femoral geometry parameters （.neck shaft angle [NSA], center edge angle [CEA], femoral head diameter [FHD], femoral neck diameter [FND], femoral neck axial length [FNAL], hip axial length [HAL], and femoral shaft diameter [FSD]） were recorded. Student＇s t-test was used to compare the continuous variables, Chi-square test was used to analyze categorical variables, and multiple logistic stepwise regression analysis was used to evaluate the influencing factors of hip fracture type. Results： Statistically significant differences in NSA （137.63 ± 4.56° vs. 132.07 ± 4.17°, t = 1.598, P 〈 0.001）, CEA （37.62 ± 6.77° vs. 43.11 ±7.09°, t = 5.597, P 〈 0.001 ）, FND （35.21 ± 3.25 mm vs. 34.09 ±3.82 mm, t = 2.233, P = 0.027）, and FNAL （99.30 ± 7.91 mm vs. 103.58± 8.39 ram, t = 3.715, P 〈 0.001 ） were found between the femoral neck fracture group and femoral intertrochanteric fracture group. FHD, FND, FSD, HAL, and FNAL were different between sexes （all P 〈 0.001 ）. The greater NSA was the risk factor for femoral neck fractures （,odds ratio [OR]： 0.70, P 〈 0.001 ）, greater CEA and longer FNAL were risk factors for femoral intertrochanteric fractures （OR： 1.15, 1.17, all P 〈 0.001）, and greater FND was a protective factor for femoral intertrochanteric fractures （OR： 0.74, P 〈 0.001）. Conclusions： We demonstrate differences in geometric morphological parameters of the proximal femur in different hip fracture types, as well as an effect of sex. These differences should he considered in the selection of prostheses for fracture internal fixation and hip replacements. These data could help guide the design of individualized customized prostheses and improve the accurate reconstruction of the proximal femur for elderly Chinese hip fracture patients.展开更多

文摘Objective： Early complications were analyzed in those with Evans Ⅲ type of intertrochanteric fracture treated with operation or nonoperative approaches. Methods：59 cases with Evans Ⅲ type of intertrochanteric fracture between June, 1999 to July, 2006 were admitted in our department. 38 patients were complicated with cardiovascular diseases, such as hypertension and arrhythmia. All the cases were operated. Results：58 cases were operated successfully. One died of pulmonary interstitial fibrosis. Grade data of different age brackets indicated that early infective complications had apparent differences between the operation and the control group. Compared with the control group, the operation group had benefits such as fewer complications, especially the infective complications, and incidence of lower extremities venous thrombosis, and the results showed notable differences. Conclusion：In elderly patients with Evans Ⅲ type of intertrochanteric fracture, the incidence of pulmonary infection was the highest. Venous thrombosis in lower extremities was the most serious complication. So it will be helpful to perform the quadriceps femories function exercise. The postoperative effect is also related with the operation approach.
