Evaluated whether HA coated dynamic hip screws can improve the surgical results in trochanteric femoral fractures
Randomised study to determine the effect of HA coating on the stability of lag screws used to reduce femoral neck fractures. Stability of the screw will be determined by RSA measurements. The effect of the HA coating on bone remodeling will be determined by DEXA measurements
