Overview

Retrospective analysis assesses ORIF outcomes in periprosthetic femoral fractures, suggesting viable alternatives in elderly patients.

Key Points

  • An open reduction and internal fixation approach offers promising results for mitigating complications in Vancouver Type B2 fractures.
  • 81.3% of patients achieved anatomic fracture reduction following treatment without stem revision, showing effectiveness.
  • This retrospective single-center study focuses on clinical and radiological outcomes over a 10-year period.
  • Findings highlight that ORIF may be an effective alternative in high-risk elderly populations faced with surgical challenges.
