Introduction:
Elderly with fractures about hip are vulnerable to succumb to co-morbid conditions that risk life, though operated by routine procedures and nursed in bed. (Pre, Per and Post operative risks)
Modified hemi arthroplasty reduces such risks, improves outcome and also allows early ambulation. (Duration of surgery, Technique, Secondary Trauma/Insult)

Inter-Trochanteric Fractures of Hip in Elderly Treated with Recon Hemi-Arthroplasty Facilitates Outcome and Early Ambulation
Objectives:
To operate upon fractures of hip in elderly, associated with high risk conditions with modified hemi-arthroplasty and to mobilize early.
Thus, most pre and post operative co-morbidities from are overcome, improving quality of life and its expectancy.

Inter-Trochanteric Fractures of Hip in Elderly Treated with Recon Hemi-Arthroplasty Facilitates Outcome and Early Ambulation
Methodology:
73 patients, 28 male and 45 female, aged 76 to 99 years in the last 16 years. Comminuted inter-trochanteric fractures associated with age related co-morbidities.
Basal osteotomy at neck of fractured femur helps enucleate and deliver the head of femur retaining the inter-trochanteric area with fracture.
Hemi arthroplasty is then completed thus impacting the fractured inter-trochanteric area.

When comminuted, the lesser trochanter is made to remain intact & impacted as original calcar of femoral neck to maintain neck of femur and length of limb.
A harness screw across the fenestration in the stem of implant avoids collapse/sink of implant in osteoporotic femora.
Bone cement not mandatory if sinking is countered. Obliquity of fracture of neck of Femur does not matter.

Results:
Passive and active knee and ankle movements are initiated on second and third post operative days, respectively.
Partial weight bear ambulation is encouraged on the third day and full weight bearing as early as by 15 days.

Advantage :
Average time needing strict bed rest is 3 to 8 days in Recon HAwhile it extends to 4 to 8 weeks in routine fixations of an IT Fracture.
Conclusion:
Marked and overall fall in complications from age related co-morbid conditions observed.
Thus, this modified hemi-arthroplasty coined as reconstructive hemi-arthroplasty edges over other modalities of treatment for inter-trochanteric fractures of hip that need longer bed rest in the elderly with co-morbid health constraints.
Costs substantially less compared to THR and technically simpler with comparable success rates.

Key Words:
Hemi arthroplasty, fracture of hip in elderly, co-morbid conditions, inter trochanteric fracture, high risk fracture.
Key Message:Hemi arthroplasty in fragile elderly with inter-trochanteric fracture enables reduced duration of bed rest, early ambulation & better survival rates from age related co-morbid conditions.
