Abstract: In this study, we have tried to find and analyse the outcome of coxofemoral bypasss in intertrochanteric fractures which were operated at a tertiary care hospital in Bhopal, M.P., India and completed the follow up till 12 months. These patients were analysed on various intra-operative and post-operative parameters. Functional assessment was done using Harris Hip Score. Harris Hip Score showed that 04(20%) patients had excellent results, 08 (40%) patient had good results, 04(20%) patients had fair and 02(10%) had poor results. Poor results were seen in patients with multiple co-morbidities. This study indicates that coxofemoral bypass for intertrochanteric fractures in elderly patients has shown to achieve early rehabilitation and good long-term results.
