Description

We report the clinical results of femoral innnntertrochanteric fractures treated with Proximal Femoral Nail-Antirotation (PFNA) between June 2005 and February 2009.<BR>The subject was 38 patients, including seven males and 31 females, with an average age of 84 years. As for the fracture type, 16 patients were classified as A1, and 19 as A2 according to AO classification. The average time between onset of fracture and operation was 6.5 days, and the average operation time was 40.6 minutes.<BR>In postoperative radiographs, the TAD (Tip-Apex Distance) was 22.9 mm (13-33 mm). In 23 patients, UCLA activity score after operation was same as that before fracture, but in 15 patients, their score was worse than that before fracture. There were no cases with the breakage or cutout of implants and postoperative varus deformity.
