Core Tip
Core Tip: The osteoporotic intertrochanteric fracture is one of the most common complications of osteoporosis and requires surgical internal fixation. However, for patients with osteoporotic intertrochanteric fractures, osteoporosis can affect the healing rate of fracture ends, with slow fracture healing and reduced exercise possibly aggravating osteoporosis and thereby leading to a vicious circle. Therefore, the treatment of osteoporosis should be strengthened during the treatment of osteoporotic intertrochanteric fractures. In this study, we observed the effect of alendronate sodium combined with InterTan on osteoporosis and fracture recurrence in the treatment of osteoporotic femoral intertrochanteric fractures and discussed its mechanism.
