[Differential choice of the procedure in the surgical treatment of fractures in the trochanteric area]

Abstract

718 trochanteric fractures, surgically treated with nailing according to Ender, 130 degrees angled blades of AO, 95 degrees condyle blades of AO, valgisation blades of AO and the (DHS) dynamic hip screw of AO were followed up for anatomical reconstruction, early weight-bearing, complications and spectrum of indication. The best surgical method is the DHS-osteosynthesis, easy to perform, weight-bearing at once, low rate of complications and good results by a broad spectrum of indications. Subtrochanteric fractures should be treated with 95 degrees condyle blade and unstable fractures connected with destruction of Adam's bow with valigisation osteotomy and valgisation blade.
