Abstract :
<p><p>&nbsp;Introduction: Our study aimed to compare effectiveness of Trochanteric stabilizing plate and Dynamic hip screw in intertrochanteric fracture femur with lateral wall fracture. Method: This prospective comparative study included 81 patients who had intertrochanteric fracture femur with lateral trochantric wall fracture (Evan&rsquo;s type III &amp; V) which were treated either with Dynamic hip screw or Trochanter stabilizing plate. Patient was evaluated for screw impaction, limb shortening &amp; functional outcome using modified Harris hip score. Result: In the group treated with DHS patients have more impaction and shortening &amp; only 40% patients have Harris hip score above 60 whereas in TSP group patients have less impaction and shortening and 70% patients have HHS above 60. Conclusion: Addition of TSP with DHS in fracture intertrochanteric femur with lateral trochanteric wall comminution can prevent excessive collapse &amp; limb shortening therefore improving overall functional outcome.</p></p>
