title: The use of the computer in a long-term review of 315 fractures of the proximal end of the femur.
abstract: The authors present a computer analysis of 315 fractures of the proximal end of the femur. The data were placed in an M24 computer which had previously been programmed for a recording of traumatological cases. Unstable pertrochanteric fractures are discussed in particular, as well as the results obtained in relation to the type of osteosynthesis used.
