Various extramedullary and intramedullary implants are being used for the management of pertrochantric fractures. In this article we are going to see whether proximal femur plate is a versatile implant in the management of pertrochantric fractures. Prospective study of twenty two patients with pertrochantric fractures treated with proximal femur plate done in Sri Ramachandra medical centre, Chennai between Jan 2012 to Jan 2015. The Schatzker & Lambert criteria were used to evaluate the functional outcome. Mean follow up was one year.The mean time to union was fourteen weeks and the mean limb shortening was 0.5cm. The functional outcome was excellent in eight patients, good in ten, Fair in three and Poor in one.Union was achieved in stable and unstable trochantric fractures without significant complications and neck shaft angle was maintained following proximal femur plate fixation. Therefore this device can be a feasible alternative to proximal femur nailing and DHS fixation in certain difficult situations.
