Summary

To assess the importance Of Ct scan in the prediction of fixation failure of per-trochanteric fractures

Conditions

  • Hip Fractures
  • Sensitivity
  • Computed Tomography Scan

Interventions

RADIATION

CT scan

1. Quantitative CT scan to measure localized osteoporosis and detection of cortices comminution. 2. Blinded surgeon decision as regard to replace or to fix using DHS or PFN (depending on x-rays data only). 3. Pathological assessment of osteoporosis in retrieved bone in patients whom hip replacement was decided. 4. Assessment of fixation failure in fixed fractures if occurred. 5. Fixation failure is defined as: 5.1. Lag cut through 5.2. Lag cutout 5.3. Z-effect (lag penetration) 5.4. Non-union (within 6 months) 5.5. Loss of reduction with progressive varus deformity 5.6. Femoral fracture 5.7. Intra-operative fracture of lateral wall or anterior cortex
