ROLE OF DHS WITH TSP IN UNSTABLE TROCHANTERIC FRACTURE

Dr Partha Pal, Dr Prashant Kumar

Abstract :

DHS is a sliding compressive device which have been used in trochanteric fracture very frequently, though this implant has fewlimitations like screw cut out and uncontrollable collapse, specially seen in unstable type of trochanteric fracture.These are due to lateral wall commination and single point entry. We reported 10 cases of unstable trochanteric fracture in which we used DHS with fixed trochanteric stabilising plate and used multiple screw through the plate for anti–rotation. All fracture was united on an average of 7 weeks. No case of implant failure was seen.
