چکیده

A prospective study was performed in 109 patients with osteoporotic hip fracture to verify the relationship between 1,25-dihydroxycholecalciferol levels at admission and functional recovery in elderly patients with hip fracture. 47.7% of all the patients had 1,25-dihydroxycholecalciferol levels below the reference values of our laboratory. At 1 year of the fracture only 33 patients (30.3%) had recovered the functional level they had before the fracture. In the bivariate analysis, a statistically significant relationship was found between reduced 1,25-dihydroxycholecalciferol levels and a poorer functional recovery 1 year after the fracture was sustained. A multivariate analysis showed a significant relationship between 1,25-dihydroxycholecalciferol levels and absolute dependence of the patient 1 year after the fracture (P = 0.005; OR 6.97: CI- 1.77-27.41).

Type II Intertrochanteric Fractures: Proximal Femoral Nailing (PFN) Versus Dynamic Hip Screw(DHS)

  Background: Intertrochanteric fracture is one of the most common fractures of the hip especially in the elderly with osteoporotic bones, usually due to low-energy trauma like simple falls. Dynamic Hip Screw (DHS) is still considered the gold standard for treating intertrochanteric fractures by many. Not many studies compare the DHS with Proximal femoral nail (PFN), in Type II intertrochanteri...
