Clinical effect of intertrochanteric fracture between PFNA and DHS

Objective To explore the clinical therapeutic effect of inverted DHS and PFNA in the treatment of femoral intertrochanteric fractures. Methods A total of 97 patients with intertrochanteric fracture in our hospital from Mar.2011 to Mar 2013 in the department of orthopaedics were randomly divided into two groups. 48 cases were included into DHS group,another 49 cases were included into PFNA group.And then the perioperative index and the average healing time,postoperative fracture reduction loss, the excellent rate of joint function recovery and the incidence of complications between the two groups were compared. Results Theoperative time,intra-operative blood loss,postoperative drainage,the average healing time of PFNA group were better than that in DHS group(P0.05).The postoperative fracture reduction loss, complication incidence of PFNA group was significantly lower than that in DHS group,and the excellent rate of joint function recovery of PFNA group was significantly higher than that in DHS group(P 0.05).Conclusion PFNA is a reliable and effective therapy for femoral intertrochanteric fractures,it is of worthy of clinical application.
