Abstract

Background: Intertrochanteric fractures include 50% of the proximal femur fractures and due to increase in life expectancy over past several decades it is expected of utmost importance to find the best possible ways to fix them along with reducing post op complications. Materials And Methods: This was a prospective longitudinal study where in 50 patients with intertrochanteric femur fractures treated by proximal femoral antirotation (PFNA2) nail .The functional outcome of the patients ,blood loss,operative time and radiation exposure was noted after the study Conclusion: We observed a substantial improvement The functional outcome of the patients ,blood loss,operative time and radiation exposure was noted after the study in PFNA-II surgery for intertrochanteric fracture of femur
