title: [Pitfalls and complications of the Weidner-Ender method of osteosynthesis in the treatment of fractures of the proximal part of the femur].
abstract: Ender's method is associated not only with advantages but also with some pitfalls and risks. The advantages--adequate stability, small surgical stress, small blood losses during operation, minimal risk of infection. Complications during operation, during the postoperative period and during subsequent by evaluation of the general condition of the patient and the type of fracture, by perfect reposition, correct surgical procedure--selection of a trepanation aperture, correct length of wires, adequate number of wires, early mobilization and gradual bordening of the operated extremity during walking. The authors present a group of 174 operated patients, incl. 159 where Ender's method of osteosynthesis was applied: in a total of 18 basicervical, 148 pretrochanteric and 8 subtrochanteric fractures. Complications developed in 11 patients--8 times distal dislocation of the wires, 6 times various dislocations of the fragments, 7 patients died after operation.
