title: [Analysis of the results of peri-trochanteric fracture treated by the Ender nails].
abstract: Results of Ender nailing in 140 patients aged between 49 and 99 (mean 81 years) with peritrochanteric fracture have been analyzed. Pros and cons of the method are discussed and potential complications pointed out. The method proved useful; results were good despite advanced age of the patients. In fractures grade I and II Kayle scale Ender nailing resulted in least complications. The risk of death was doubled by delaying surgical intervention.
