Mechanism of Unstable Inter-Trochanteric Fractures in the Elderly
Subscribe/Renew Journal
There is an increased incidence of hip fractures with aging due to decrease in muscle mass around the hip and osteoporosis. This is becoming more common as the proportion of elderly people in the population has been steadily increasing. Our study shall aim to evaluate the clinical, functional and radiological outcomes of bipolar hemi-arthroplasty and compare them to those treated by dynamic hip screw fixation, for communized, osteoporotic, displaced trochanteric fractures in the elderly population.
