Introduction: Trochanteric fracture incidence has increased due to increased life expectancy and osteoporosis. Management of these fractures in elderly is challenging due to difficult anatomical reduction, poor bone quality and osteoporosis. Internal fixation in these cases usually involves prolonged bed rest to prevent implant failure which leads higher complication such as deep vein thrombosis, pneumonia, pulmonary embolism, bed sores, increased morbidity. Materials and Methods: We had done a clinical, observational and prospective type study in 34 cases of trochanteric fracture of femur where 12 cases were operated with uncemented bipolar hemiarthroplasty, 11 cases were treated with cemented bipolar hemiarthroplasty and 11 cases were tre...
