We report the results of treating a series of 56 fractures in 54 elderly patients with a distal femur fracture with a retrograde femoral nail.
Fifty-four of the nails were inserted percutaneously with a closed reduction. After surgery all patients were allowed to weight bear as tolerated. Four fractures were supported in a temporary external splint.
The mean age of patients was 80.6 years (range 51-103 years), 52/54 (96%) were females. There were no cases of nail related complications and no re-operations were required. One patient was lost to follow up. The 30-day mortality was 5/54 (9.3%) and the one year mortality was 17/54 (31.5%).
Distal femoral nail fixation provides a good method of fixation allowing immediate mobilisation for this group of patients.
我们报告了使用逆行股骨钉治疗54例老年患者的一系列56处股骨远端骨折的结果。
54枚钉子通过闭合复位经皮插入。术后所有患者根据耐受情况允许负重。4处骨折用临时外部夹板固定。
患者的平均年龄为80.6岁(范围51 - 103岁),52/54(96%)为女性。没有与钉子相关的并发症病例,也无需再次手术。1例患者失访。30天死亡率为5/54(9.3%),1年死亡率为17/54(31.5%)。
股骨远端钉固定为这组患者提供了一种良好的固定方法,可使其立即活动。
