The impact of serum albumin and serum protein levels on POSSUM score of patients with proximal femur fractures

Intertrochanteric femur fractures in the elderly treated with either proximal femur nailing or hemiarthroplasty: A prospective randomised clinical study

“…1-max. 15 The difference between the two groups was not statistically significant (T-Test, p = 0.832), (Table 1).…”

“…Intertrochanteric fractures represent the most common geriatric fracture and remain a topic of vivid discussion for the trauma surgeon [12][13][14][15][16][17].…”

Unstable intertrochanteric femur fractures in geriatric patients treated with the DLT trochanteric nail

“…The overall time from the day of admission to surgery averaged 2.9 days (2-6). The mean postoperative followup time was 18.3 months (12)(13)(14)(15)(16)(17)(18)(19)(20)(21)(22)(23)(24)(25)(26).…”

“…The management of proximal femoral fractures has had a lot of attention recently in the literature [19][20][21][22][23][24][25]. In the elderly population with unstable intertrochanteric fractures, stable fixation is essential to allow early mobilization and to minimize the risk of morbidity and mortality.…”

“…TAD was <25 mm in 29 patients (90.6%) and 25 mm in 3 patients (9.4%). The mean tip-apex distance was 15.5 mm (10)(11)(12)(13)(14)(15)(16)(17)(18)(19)(20)(21)(22)(23)(24)(25)(26)(27). The early postoperative and last follow-up mean collo-diaphyseal angles were 129.18 (120-1408) and 128.68 (120-1358), respectively (p > 0.05).…”
