Artificial intelligence‐based diagnosis of non‐displaced femoral neck fractures shows excellent sensitivity and specificity and reduces the need for computed tomography scans in emergency rooms

open access: yesJournal of Experimental Orthopaedics, Volume 13, Issue 2, April 2026.
Abstract Purpose The purpose of this study was to evaluate the diagnostic performance of an artificial intelligence (AI)‐based system for the detection of non‐displaced femoral neck fractures (FNFs) on plain pelvic radiographs and to assess its potential impact on confirmatory computed tomography (CT) utilization.

Intertrochanteric fracture neck treatment with percutaneous dynamic hip screw fixation technique: understanding outcomes in elderly patients

open access: yesJournal of University Medical & Dental College
Background and Objective: Femur fractures result in a high rate of mortality and morbidity. Objective was to compare effectiveness of percutaneous dynamic hip screw fixation technique (PC-DHS) and conventional open dynamic hip screw (DHS) in terms of

Impact of Early Surgery on Clinical Outcomes of Super‐Aged Patients With Hip Fractures: A Retrospective Propensity Score‐Matched Study With 2‐Year Follow‐Up

open access: yesOrthopaedic Surgery, Volume 18, Issue 3, Page 533-543, March 2026.
Early surgery (< 48 h) in super‐aged hip fracture patients reduces 1–2 years mortality, complications, hospital stay, and costs, supporting timely intervention protocols. ABSTRACT Objective The global aging population has led to a significant increase in hip fractures among elderly patients, posing substantial clinical challenges.

Intraoperative Abdominal Penetration of the Lag Screw: A Rare Complication During Proximal Femoral Nail Anti‐Rotation Surgery

open access: yesClinical Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 2, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Although the proximal femoral nail anti‐rotation (PFNA) is accompanied by several benefits, using the nail is technically challenging and may pose some errors, leading to osteosynthesis failure. Here, we report a critical presentation of an uncommon side effect of PFNA surgery.

Locking plates increase the strength of dynamic hip screws.

open access: yes, 2008
INTRODUCTION: Failure of a dynamic hip screw (DHS) fixation leads to decreased mobility of the patient and frequently to a decrease in general health. The most common mode of failure of a DHS is cut out of the lag screw from the femoral head.

Comparison of systemic inflammatory responses of proximal femoral nail versus dynamic hip screw after treatment of patients with pertrochanteric fractures: A prospective comparative study

open access: yes, 2021
Objective: The aim of this study was to investigate the differences between the induction of early postoperative inflammatory response and muscle tissue injury biomarkers after treatment of pertrochanteric fractures by dynamic hip screw (DHS) or proximal

Limb salvage in multiple revision total knee arthroplasty using customised implants: When sleeves and cones are no longer an option

open access: yesJournal of Experimental Orthopaedics, Volume 13, Issue 1, January 2026.
Abstract Purpose Multiple revision total knee arthroplasty (rTKA) remains highly challenging due to severe bone defects, which often render standard implants unsuitable. This study aimed to evaluate the clinical outcomes, survivorship and complication rates of customised knee implants used in aseptic one‐stage rTKA for patients with severe bone defects.

A Biomechanical Study Comparing Helical Blade with Screw Design for Sliding Hip Fixations of Unstable Intertrochanteric Fractures

open access: yesThe Scientific World Journal, 2013
Dynamic hip screw (DHS) is a well-established conventional implant for treating intertrochanteric fracture. However, revision surgery sometimes still occurs due to the cutting out of implants.

The design, manufacture and analysis of a new implant for fracture fixation in human and veterinary orthopaedic surgery: the bone fastenerod [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
Fracture fixation in humans and animals has troubled surgeons and scientists since first it was attempted right up to the present day. At every milestone of achievement in the understanding and practice of fracture repair there has remained a significant

Intra-Pelvic Migration of Sliding Hip Screw During Osteosynthesis of Hip Fracture: A Rare Avoidable Intraoperative Complication.

open access: yes, 2015
Hip fractures, which are common among old patients, are classified into two groups: intracapsular and extracapsular fractures. Extracapsular fractures can be treated with extramedullary implants [e.g.
