【 摘 要 】

Sliding hip screw devices were developed in the middle of the 20th century and gained popularity for surgical fixation of proximal femoral fractures in the late 1980s.1 The latest versions of these implants, such as the dynamic hip screw (DHS), are nowadays accepted options for surgical fixation of simple trochanteric fractures (AO-OTA 31-A1), multi-fragmentary trochanteric fractures (AO-OTA 31-A2), and some subtypes of femoral neck fractures with a rather vertical fracture line (AO-OTA 31-B, Pauwels 2 & 3).
