Summary

Comparing functional outcomes of hemiarthroplasty (prosthetic joint) versus cephalo-medullary fixation ( proximal femoral intramedullary nail) in the treatment of unstable intertrochanteric femoral fractures (proximal femur fractures) in elderly people above 60 years old.

Conditions

  • Fracture of Femur

Interventions

PROCEDURE

Bipolar hemiarthroplasty , proximal femoral nail

* Removal of head of femur , greater trochanter , and lesser trochanter and use bioplar hemiarthroplasty (BHA). * Intra-medullary fixation of intertrchanteric femoral fracture by proximal femoral nail (PFN) Fixation of the fracture by using intramedullary nail(proximal femoral nail).
