 PAGE \* MERGEFORMAT 10 Minimally invasive percutaneous plate fixation of proximal femoral anatomy of intertrochanteric fractures of elderly patients Study: Fan Jie Lee Ming Liu Bin Wang wind and thunder [Abstract] Objective To investigate the minimally invasive treatment of intertrochanteric fractures of the method and its effects. Methods closed reduction and minimally invasive percutaneous plate fixation of proximal femoral anatomy of elderly patients with intertrochanteric fracture in 22 cases. Results 22 cases were successful operation, all 22 patients were 4 to 18 months of follow-up, an average of 12.6 months. All patients were achieved within 3 months after bone healing, efficacy assessment: excellent in 14 cases, good in 7 cases in 1 case, good rate of 95.4%. Conclusion Minimally invasive percutaneous plate fixation of proximal femoral anatomy of the treatment of intertrochanteric fractures of the elderly a better way. [Keywords:] Anatomy of intertrochanteric fracture fixation plate Intertrochanteric fracture is a common injury in the elderly, due to trochanteric rich blood supply, very few non-union fractures, but is very prone to varus. Bedridden elderly patients with more complications, of how to treat it as soon as possible restore limb function, reduce trauma and complications caused by long-term bed rest and improve the quality of life, certainly is very necessary. Therefore, most scholars advocate the use of surgical treatment [1], to reduce the systemic complications and the incidence of malunion rate. present fixation implants for a variety of, our hospital the treatment of proximal femoral anatomy board to achieve a satisfactory effect of intertrochanteric fracture are reported as follows: 1 Materials and Methods 1.1 General information from January 2007 to May 2008, our hospital board of proximal femoral anatomy of 22 patients with intertrochanteric fractures, 10 males and 12 females; aged 55 to 78 years with an average o
