ABSTRACT

[Objective]To compare the fixation effects of cannulated compression screws and dynamic hip screws.[Method]From July 2000 to December 2006,152 old patients with intertrochanteric hip fracture were fixed with cannulated compression screws(n=68) and dynamic hip screws(n=84).They were followed up and their complete clinic data were obtained.A retrospective comparison was made between the two differet fixation devices in terms of operation time,blood loss,intraoperative and postoperative complications,functional recovery one year postoperatively and treatment expenses.[Result]The differences in operation time,blood loss between 2 groups had statistical significance(P0.05) for the Evans types Ⅰ,Ⅱ patients,but had statistical significance(P
