    Abstract:
    OBJECTIVE: To study clinical effects of inversive LISS(less invasive stabilization system, LISS) plate for the treatment of intertrochanteric and subtrochanteric fractures combined with femoral shaft fractures. METHODS: From January 2012 to January 2015, 24 patients with intertrochanteric and subtrochanteric fractures combined with femoral shaft fractures were treated with inversive LISS plate, included 16 males and 8 females with an average age of 62.5 years old ranged from 35 to 81 years old. There were 8 cases of traffic accident injuries, 3 cases of falling from high place, and 13 cases of falls injuries. The time from injury to operation was ranged from 2 to 12 days with an average of 5.2 days. The operation time, intraoperative blood loss and the length of hospitalization were analyzed. The fracture union was assessed by follow-up radiographs and hip functional recovery by Harris hip scoring. RESULTS: All patients were followed up for 16.2 months (ranged, 18 to 36 months). The mean operative time was (68.22±48.36) min;the mean blood loss was (256.28±182.46) ml;the mean time of hospitalization was(14.8±5.2) days. There were no complications such as deep infection, deep vein thrombosis, pulmonary embolism and bone nonunion during the follow up period. The bone healing was ranged from 3 to 8 months with an average of 4.8 months. The mean Harris score was 76.49±12.28 at the final follow-up, 15 cases were classified as excellent, 6 as good and 3 as fair. CONCLUSIONS: Inversive LISS plate can be used in treating with intertrochanteric and subtrochanteric fractures combined with femoral shaft fractures, and should not emphasis on premature loading.
