ABSTRACT: Objective: To investigate the clinical effect of self-setting calcium phosphate artificial bone in the assisted treatment of intertrochanteric femoral fractures. Methods: The clinical data of 46 patients with intertrochanteric femoral fractures who underwent surgical treatment in the Department of Traumatic Orthopedics of our hospital from January 2021 to June 2023 were collected. They were divided into a study group and an observation group according to whether self-setting calcium phosphate artificial bone was used during the operation. The study group comprised 22 cases, and the observation group comprised 24 cases. The observation group received only surgical treatment, while the study group received self-setting calcium phosphate artificial bone in addition to surgical treatment. The postoperative hospital stay, time to full weight-bearing (weeks), preoperative Harris hip score, and Harris hip score at the 8th week postoperatively were compared between the two groups. Results: There was no statistically significant difference in postoperative hospital stay and preoperative Harris hip score between the study group and the observation group. However, the time required for full weight-bearing postoperatively in the study group was shorter than that in the observation group (P
