Gamma nail vs compression screw for trochanteric femoral fractures: 15 reoperations in a prospective, randomized study of 378 patients
摘要：
A total of 378 trochanteric and subtrochanteric femoral fractures were randomized to treatment with Gamma nail (177) or Hip Compression Screw (HCS) (201). After a median follow-up time of 17 (10-27) months, 15 patients needed reoperations; 13 had been treated with Gamma nail and 2 with HCS. 10 patients, all treated with Gamma nail, were reoperated because of a femoral shaft fracture. 5 of these fractures occurred 8 (4-10) days postoperatively and were related to intraoperative complications. The other 5 shaft fractures occurred a median of 2 (1-3) months postoperatively after falls, and may be related to stress concentration at the tip of the solid nail. The lag screw cut out or penetrated the femoral head in 5 patients, 3 of them treated with Gamma nail and 2 with HCS.
