Beschreibung
Pertrochanteric fractures are the most commonly operated fracture type globally but have the highest fatality rate post-operatively. The conservative management of these fractures is associated with almost double the rate of fatality. The dynamic hip screw (DHS) plate system continues to be the preferred "gold standard" as "collapse to stability" remains a distinct advantage. This work analyzes the implications of "surgeon unrelated" morbidities like age, gender, fracture type, degree of comminution, osteopenia and "surgeon related" morbidities like fracture reduction, screw placement and tip apex distance (TAD), in the outcome.
