Femoral Nail

Introduction: The TFN-ADVANCED Proximal Femoral Nailing System (TFNA) 235 mm (DePuySynthes) and Proximal Femoral Nail Antirotation (PFNA)-II 240 mm (DePuySynthes) were developed to obtain better stability for patients with trochanteric hip fractures without increasing surgical time and amount of blood loss. However, there are currently no studies concerning clinical and radiological outcomes of patients treated using these proximal femoral nails (PFNs) that have been performed in the Japanese population. The aim of this study was to retrospectively evaluate the clinical outcomes associated with 235 to 240 mm PFNs for Japanese patients >70 years old with trochanteric hip fractures who could walk independently before the injury. Materials and Methods: This study involved a retrospective analysis of data on trochanteric hip fracture patients who had undergone internal fixation from March 2016 to June 2018. The inclusion criteria were patients >70 years old with trochanteric hip fractures who could walk independently before the injury and were followed up for ≥3 months after surgery. Initially, 124 patients were identified, but 33 of these were excluded because other implants were used for internal fixation. Of the remaining 91 patients in whom PFNs were used at the time of internal fixation who were included for the perioperative evaluation, 66 patients followed up for ≥3 months were included in the clinical evaluations. Results: The average surgical time was 56.8 ± 19.6 minutes (range, 23-123 minutes). The average blood loss was 89 ± 41 mL (range, 0-245 mL). The union rate was 98%. Discussion: There were no cases of nail jamming, and all nails were successfully inserted below the end of the distal isthmus without additional reaming to dilate the canal. Conclusions: Proximal femoral nails were a useful implant in Japanese elderly patients with trochanteric hip fractures and gave comparable clinical outcomes despite the femoral length being short and occurrence of intensive bowing.
