What is an Intertrochanteric Fracture?
The intertrochanteric region is the upper part of the femur bone, just below the ball of the hip joint. A break in this area can significantly impact mobility and cause severe pain.
Symptoms of Intertrochanteric Fracture:
- Severe pain in the hip or groin area, especially when trying to bear weight on the affected leg
- Difficulty walking or inability to walk at all
- Bruising and swelling around the hip
- Shortening of the affected leg
Treatment for Intertrochanteric Fracture:
Treatment for an intertrochanteric fracture typically involves surgery to stabilize the broken bone. The specific surgical approach will depend on the severity and location of the fracture. Dr. Srivanth may recommend one of the following procedures:
- Internal Fixation: Metal screws and plates are used to fix the fractured bone fragments in place.
- Intramedullary Nailing (IMN): A long metal rod is inserted into the hollow shaft of the femur to stabilize the fracture.
