| Abstract | Objective To retrospectively analyze the clinical efficacy of PFNA combined with a cerclage wire in the treatment of 52 patients with unstable subtrochanteric fracture of the femur and to analyze the biomechanical effect of ligature on a fracture model. Methods In this study, 52 patients with unstable subtrochanteric fractures were treated in our orthopedic trauma center from June 2013 to July 2018. The Seinsheimer type IV fracture model was established using the patient’s CT data, and the joint surface of the distal femoral condyle and the external condyle were restrained. The femoral head was used as the loading point, and a force of 500 N was applied vertically along the long axis of the femoral shaft. Results All 52 patients were followed up for 12 to 37 months, with an average of 18.07 ± 4.38 months. According to the Sanders hip function score, 28 cases were excellent (55–60 points), 22 cases were good (45–54 points), and 2 cases were poor (35–44 points), with an excellent and good rate of 96.15%. Postoperative deep vein thrombosis occurred in 3 cases, and fracture nonunion occurred in 1 case. No infection, loose fracture of internal fixation or hip varus deformity occurred. The finite element analysis indicated that the displacement of the whole model decreased slightly and the relative sliding of the fracture block decreased, but the maximum stress of the femur increased after the addition of the cerclage wire. Conclusion The treatment of unstable subtrochanteric fracture of the femur with PFNA combined with cerclage wire has the advantages of simple operation, satisfactory reduction of fracture, stable fixation, and good recovery of limb function. The finite element analysis suggested that the biomechanical strength fixation was enhanced after the addition of cerclage wire. However, the local stress concentration of the tie may increase the risk of failure. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
