    Intertrochanteric fractures are common in the elderly, necessitating effective surgical management to minimize complications.

  • 2

    A novel femoral artery hemostasis device was utilized during PFNA surgery, effectively controlling intraoperative blood flow.

  • 3

    The device achieved effective compression, indicated by the absence of the dorsalis pedis artery pulse, preserving collateral circulation.

  • 4

    The patient experienced minimal blood loss during surgery and had no postoperative complications, indicating the device's safety.

  • 5

    This case suggests the hemostasis device may provide a non-invasive strategy for hip fracture surgeries, warranting further research.
