New design of the pin - "screw with a removable blade" for fixing the fragments of the femoral neck
At the end of the last century, there were some unsuccessful attempts to treat hip fractures with surgery. Since 1931, a three-lobed Smith-Petersen pin has been used for the osteosynthesis of medial fractures. This method of fixation of fragments, due to the absence of immobilizing dressings in the postoperative period and the beginning of the early function of the injured limb, made it possible to drastically reduce the number of deaths and avoid severe complications.
