Abstract

Objective: To discuss the therapeutic efficacy of closed reduction and internal fixation with hollow needle for high-risk aged trochanter fracture. Methods: 60 patients with high-risk aged trochanter fracture, who received treatment in our hospital from February 2010 to August 2012, were selected, 40 cases underwent closed reduction and internal fixation with hollow needle, as the treatment group. 20 cases received DHS internal fixation, as the control group. follow-up was made for six months to two years to observe the therapeutic efficacy. Results: 59 cases were cured successfully, 1 case had infection and bone exposure, which was cured through changing medicine, there was no cases of death, hip varus deformity, fixation loosening and other complications. Conclusion: The closed reduction and internal fixation with hollow needle for high-risk aged trochanter fracture has the advantages of being relatively easy to use, reliable to fix, minimal trauma, less bleeding, less complication, high cure rate, etc. worthy of extensive promotion and application in clinical.
