This is to present 44 cases of hip fractures, of these 28 being fractures of femoral neck and the remainder, intertrochanteric, which were treated at the Department of Orthopedic Surgery, Seoul National University Hospital for four years and 8 months from Jan. 1965 to Aug. 1969. 1. There were 33 males. and 11 females in the series. 26 cases(59.1) were over 51 years of age. 2. The femoral neck fractures were treated by means of Smith Petersen nailing in 16 cases, modified Girdlestone hip arthroplasty in 3 cases, Austin-Moore hip prosthesis in 6 cases and other methods in 3 cases. 3. Modified Girdlestone hip arthroplasty could be a treatment of choice for femoral neck fracture requiring hip arthroplasty for those unsuitable for extensive surgery. 4. The intertrochanteric fractures of femur except for 3 unstable fractures were treated successfully with the Smith-Petersen nail and plate, following anatomical reduction of fracture. In 3 unstable fractures, satisfactory stabilization and internal fixation was obtained by the method of medial displacement of proximal part of distal fragment of fracture.
