Abstract

Objective: to evaluate the results of treatment of proximal femoral nail anti-rotation (PFNA) in intertrochanteric fracture without an orthopedic surgical table at Thong Nhat Hospital. Subjects and methods: a retrospective, descriptive, non-randomized study was conducted on 28 patients who has intertrochanteric fracture treatment with PFNA. Results: the majority of patients are females aged above 60 years old, often due to a life-related accident, the follow-up period is at least 3 months, and the longest is 6 months, assessed by the Harris scale as positive: good and very good, reaching 90.4. ± 4.3, average blood loss 324.4 ± 145.7, and patients can walk with a support frame after 5-10 days. Conclusion: intertrochanteric fracture surgery with PFNA in the lateral decubitus position without using an orthopedic table also has many similar advantages compared to the supine position using an orthopedic table.
