    Abstract:
    Authors describe the history of the dynamic hip screw and analyse the hip fracture. The operative technique of the DHS is described in details. In an analysis of the material of the Wilhelminenspital it is stressed that in the last years the DHS became dominant in the treatment of hip fractures. The treatment of four different types of fractures with DHS is demonstrated. The method is compared with other methods suitable for the treatment of hip fractures and it is stated that the less complications can be expected from the use of the DHS. On the basis of this comparison it is shown that the DHS is worthy to occupy a decisive place in the treatment of hip fractures.
