摘要：

This retrospective study evaluates the results obtained in five Italian departments of traumatology in the treatment of peritrochanteric (pertrochanteric and subtrochanteric) fractures by the intramedullary hip screw (IMHS; Smith & Nephew Richards, Memphis, TN, USA) nail. One thousand two hundred and seventy-three patients were treated with the IMHS nail between March 1992 and February 2000. The results of these operations were evaluated clinically and radiological in 981 patients. The 90.3% of patients could walk unaided or with simple support. Because of the low complication rate requiring re-operation (postoperative shaft fractures, screw penetrated the acetabulum, cut out and non-union) (1.7%), we think that this device is an advance in the treatment of peritrochanteric fractures.
