Abstract: | The authors present the management of trochanteric fractures based on 343 fractures treated in Department of Orthopaedics and Trauma in Clinical Hospital of Emergencies of Ia?i for 5 years. The non-operative treatment was used in 17.2% of cases and the conservative methods were plaster immobilization, continuous traction and early mobilization. The surgical treatment was used in 82.8% of cases. The reduction of the fractures was usually possible using closed methods. For fixation, the authors used four types of implants: the 135 degrees blade-plate in 9.2% of cases, the condylar blade plate in 44.7%, Ender nails in 45.4% and DHS in 0.6% of cases. The choice of one of this methods depends on the type of fracture, age of the patient and on his biological status. |
