A Comparative Study Evaluating the Outcomes of Primary Cemented Bipolar Hemiarthroplasty Versus Proximal Femoral Nail Osteosynthesis for Unstable Intertrochanteric Femur Fractures in the Elderly Patient.

Objective: The objective of this study was to compare the outcomes of primary cemented bipolar hemiarthroplasty with proximal femoral nail (PFN) osteosynthesis as a management modality in unstable fractures of the intertrochanteric femur.

Introduction: Intertrochanteric fractures also referred to as extracapsular fractures occur in the area between the greater and lesser trochanters. Osteosynthesis is a prompt and efficient method for managing stable intertrochanteric fractures.

An Outcome Analysis of Pediatric Diaphyseal Fractures Treated Surgically With the Titanium Elastic Nailing System.

Introduction Pediatric fractures account for one-fourth of all pediatric injuries. Stabilizing the fracture, regulating the length and alignment, encouraging bone healing, and minimizing morbidity and problems for the child and family are the objectives of treatment for diaphyseal fractures of long bones in children. Our goal is to investigate how pediatric diaphyseal long bone fractures are treated with a titanium elastic nailing system (TENS).
