Short versus standard PFN outcome analysis in unstable intertrochantric fracture

Posterior Hip Fracture -Dislocation Associated with Ipsilateral Intertrochantric Fracture; a Rare Case Report

Hip dislocation occurs when the femur does not break and the force is transmitted towards the hip joint leading to a posterior dislocation of the femoral head with or without posterior acetabular fracture. We present the case of a 26 year old patient involved in motor vehicle accident. Clinical and imaging (radiography, CT) examination revealed an intertrochanteric fracture associated with ipsi...

SHORT TERM CLINICAL OUTCOME OF PERCUTANEOUS BALLOON MITRAL VALVULOPLASTY VERSUS SURGICAL CLOSED MITRAL COMMISSUROTOMY

BaIlon mitral valvuloplasty and closed mitral valve conunissurotomy were performed in 450 and 127 patients, respectively. Also, 254 patients with severe mitral stenosis were enrolled in a prospective randomized trial comparing the two procedures. Immediately after balloon mitral valvuloplasty, mean left atrial pressure was 11.38±3.54 mmHg, transmitral valve gradient was 1.8±2 mmHg, and mit...

Proximal femoral nail for treatment of Unstable Trochanteric fractures, Review of Results in 60 cases

Introduction :To review the outcome of 60 patients treated with a proximal femoral nail (PFN) for Unstable trochanteric fractures from Jan 2010 to Dec 2011. Methods: 27 men and 33 women aged 28 to 90 (mean, 63) years with Unstable trochanteric fractures underwent PFN fixation using an cephallo-medullary nail, a lag screw, and a hip pin & Interlocking Bolts. Fractures were classified according t...
