N L Ankin, and L N Ankin, and S A Korol', and Iu V Poliachenko, and V V Burluka

In 1990-1999 years osteosynthesis of the hip bone was performed in 500 injured persons with combined trauma. In 63.1% patients the plates were used, in 19.6%--pivots, in 17.3%--apparatuses of external fixation. The choice of the method and optimal terms of performance of the surgical stabilization procedure of fracture were determined by the trauma severity in accordance with anatomo-functional model. In 12-18 months after the operation 198 patients were examined. Good result was noted in 79.6% of patients, satisfactory--in 17.3%, bad--in 3.1%.

D012189	Retrospective Studies	Studies used to test etiologic hypotheses in which inferences about an exposure to putative causal factors are derived from data relating to characteristics of persons under study or to events or experiences in their past. The essential feature is that some of the persons under study have the disease or outcome of interest and their characteristics are compared with those of unaffected persons.
