This report is being filed after the review of the following journal article: kruse m., et al (2021) peri-implant femoral fractures in hip fracture patients treated with osteosynthesis: a retrospective cohort study of 1965 patients, european journal of trauma and emergency surgery volume xxxx, pages 1-6 (sweden).This retrospective cohort study aims to investigate the incidence of postoperative peri-implant femoral fractures (piff) following osteosynthesis of proximal femoral fractures.Between 2003 and 2015, 1965 patients (685 males, 1280 females) mean age 80 years [range 50¿102]) with trochanteric hip fractures with osteosynthesis were included.Of these, 382 ( were treated with a cmn, 933 with shd and 650 with pins for femoral neck fractures.The following devices were used either a long or short cmn (gamma3® (stryker, kalamazoo, mi, usa), pfn/pfna (depuy synthes®)), shd (dynamic hip screw (dhs, depuy synthes®) or hansson twin-hook (swemac orthopaedics ab, linköping, sweden)) based on surgeons´ preference.Femoral neck fractures (fnf) were treated with pins (hansson hook pin system (swemac orthopaedics ab, linköping, sweden).Patients were followed-up until removal or for a mean of 4 years (range 0¿15) replacement of osteosynthesis, death or december 2018.The following complications were reported as follows: the 1-year mortality in the entire cohort was 23%.The 1-year mortality rate after piff was 34%.A total of 41 piffs were identified at a mean time of 27 months (range 0¿143 months) postoperatively.In total 27 of 41 patients underwent surgery for piff and 4 (4/27) needed revision surgery.The cumulative incidence of piff was 0.8% for cmn, 2.7% for shd (hr 2.9, 95% ci 0.87¿9.6, p = 0.08) and 2.0% (hr 2.3, 95% ci 0.6¿8.1, p = 0.2) for pins using the cmn as the denominator.Among cmn, 2 piffs occurred with short cmn (n = 250) and 1 piff with a long cmn (n = 132).1 posttraumatic osteoarthritis-arthroplasty.1 wound rupture.1 cmn: cut-out reosteosynthesis.This report is for an unknown synthes pfn/pfna.This is report 1 of 5 for (b)(4).
