We analysed sixty-six cases of extracapsular fracture of the hip which had been treated during past thirteen years.The years of age at injury were 65 on an average and female were much more cases than male.Twenty three cases were treated conservatively and 43 by internal fixation. An average follow-up periood was 1 year and 3 months.According to Evans's classification, they fell into 54.3% on the unstable fracture and 45.7% on the stable fracture.The unstable fracture were treated conservatively and operatively occurred respectively varus deformity in 50%.There were 13 cases, in 20% of them, without walking before discharge, because the fracture occurred frequently in elderly patients with some complications.We disccussed especially the unstable type of extracapsular fracture of the hip and consider that Sarmiento technique was excerllent therapeutic method, although we were experienced in only some cases.
