Abstract
While hemiendoprothesis has been established in the treatment of hip f ractures of aged people because of less operative trauma, better effec tiveness and satisfying functionality, surgical management of trochant eric fractures is still in discussion. In our study, we found no sever e difference of living conditions or mortality after operating elderly patients with proximal femoral fractures comparing Hemiprotheses vers us Endernails versus Dynamic Hip Screws.
