Influence of Dynamization of Trochanteric Fracture Osteosynthesis on Bone Union

CONCLUSIONS: 1. This study revealed a measurable biologically beneficial effect of dynamization of the fixation of trochanteric fractures on the time of bone union. 2. Conventional radiographs and CT imaging according to indications significantly facilitate the classification of fractures and selection of the method of stabilization with dynamization. 3. Due to the considerable comminution of the trochanteric massif, double dynamization (cervical-trochanteric and femoral-trochanteric) of fracture fragments is essential, ensuring reduction of fracture gaps and self-reduction of inter-fracture resorptive gaps, which is a prerequisite for optimal union. 4. Allowing early, full weight-bearing of the operated limb within the painless range is an important element of effective dynamization.PMID:35550357 | DOI:10.5604/01.3001.0015.8267
