Abstract

Osteoporotic patient has low bone quality and often occur unstable fracture. Conventional dynamic hip screw method can provide good result on stable femoral fracture. On the unstable femoral fracture, it has high failure rate. The purpose is to investigate the biomechanics analysis for dynamic hip Screw on osteoporotic and unstable proximal femoral fracture. The specific aims are to :(1) develop the osteoporotic and unstable proximal femoral fractures model,(2) investigate the influence of lesser trochanter fixation on stress and deformation distribution.
