| Core Tip |
This manuscript evaluate the clinical outcomes of arthroplasty vs proximal femoral nails (PFNs) in the treatment of unstable intertrochanteric femoral fractures (IFFs) in the elderly patients. Many people believe that arthroplasty can replace PFNs for unstable IFFs in the elderly once and for all. However, there is no consensus. Some researchers have carried out reviews of the research, but the results were different. Therefore, we conduct this meta-analysis. We reviewed four randomized controlled trials about this topic and found that arthroplasty cannot achieve a better result than proximal femoral nail in the clinic. Arthroplasty is not the first choice for the treatment of unstable IFFs in the elderly. |
