Abstract：BACKGROUND:There are more ways of internal fixation in treatment of elderly intertrochanteric fracture;however, how to choose a fixed way is the key issue of ensuring the efficacy. OBJECTIVE:To compare the therapeutic effect of proximal femoral anti-rotation intramedul ary nail and proximal femoral locking plate in the treatment of elderly femoral intertrochanteric fractures. METHODS:Total y 100 patients with femoral intertrochanteric fractures who received the treatment at Qionghai City People’s Hospital from December 2009 to December 2013 were randomly divided into locking plate and anti-rotation intramedul ary nail groups. Patients in the anti-rotation intramedul ary nail group underwent internal fixation using proximal femoral anti-rotation intramedul ary nail. Patients in the locking plate group underwent internal fixation using proximal femoral locking plate. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Compared with the locking plate group, the amount of bleeding, operation time, postoperative bed activity time and hospital stay in the anti-rotation intramedul ary nail group significantly reduced, the excel ent rate of Harris scores was significantly increased after 1 year of internal fixation and the incidence of complications and adverse reactions was significantly decreased. There was no host response to the material in these two groups.
