Abstract:Objective To investigate the clinical effect of proximal femoral nail antirotation (PFNA) and InterTan internal fixation in the treatment of elderly intertrochanteric fracture and provide reference for clinical treatment. Methods The clinical data of 94 elderly patients with intertrochanteric fractures admitted to the First People′s Hospital of Hefei City, Anhui Province from January 2016 to April 2019 were retrospectively analyzed. The patients were divided into PFNA group and InterTan group by different intraoperative fixation methods, with 47 patients in each group. Perioperative conditions, Harris score and complications during follow-up were compared between the two groups. Results There were no statistically significant differences between the two groups in incision length, hospital stay, early load-bearing time and fracture healing time (P > 0.05). The operation time of PFNA group was shorter than that of InterTan group, intraoperative blood loss was less than that of InterTan group and drainage volume 24 h after operation was more than that of InterTan group, and the differences were statistically significant (all P < 0.05). Overall analysis: there were statistically significant differences between the two groups at different time points (P < 0.05), while there were no statistically significant differences between the two groups in comparison and interaction (P > 0.05). Further pairwise comparison showed that Harris scores were higher in both groups six and twelve months after surgery than before surgery, and that twelve months after surgery was higher than six months after surgery in both groups, with statistically significant differences (all P < 0.05). During follow-up, the total incidence of complications in the PFNA group was higher than that in the InterTan group, and the difference was statistically significant (P < 0.05). Conclusion The effects of PFNA and InterTan internal fixation in elderly patients with intertrochanteric fractures are similar. PFNA internal fixation can be used to reduce injuries in patients with poor systemic condition, while InterTan internal fixation can be used to reduce long-term complications in patients with good systemic condition.
