Femoral shaft fractures

Evidence-Based Orthopedics, 2021
It appears that both the retrograde and antegrade approach to treating femoral shaft fractures yield high union and similar malunion rates. Those receiving antegrade nailing may heal faster although this was not consistent.

Interimplant femoral fractures

Orthopaedics & Traumatology: Surgery & Research, 2022
The number of hip or knee arthroplasties, and internal fixations of the proximal and distal femur, is increasing in proportion to the growing and ageing population, whose life expectancy is lengthening. Thus, fractures of the femur between proximal and distal implants, although rare, are becoming more frequent.

Femoral shaft fracture

British Journal of Hospital Medicine, 2006
The femur is a long bone that extends from the hip to the knee. At its proximal end is the head, neck, greater and lesser trochanters, at the distal end a metaphyseal flare to the medial and lateral condyles. The femoral diaphysis (shaft) is bowed anteriorly. The femur is a tubular bone, which gives it strength to withstand axial loading; this enables

Femoral Neck Fractures

Orthopedic Clinics of North America, 2002
Femoral neck fractures in the geriatric patient continue to represent a therapeutic challenge. Despite advances in surgical techniques and medical care, the risk of nonunion and osteonecrosis after fixation have not changed appreciably in the last 50 years.

Trochanteric Femoral Fractures

Acta chirurgiae orthopaedicae et traumatologiae Cechoslovaca, 2013
At the present time proximal femoral fractures account for 30% of all fractures referred to hospitals for treatment. Our population is ageing, the proportion of patients with post-menopausal or senile osteoporosis is increasing and therefore the number of proximal femoral fractures requiring urgent treatment is growing too.

FEMORAL STRESS FRACTURES

Clinics in Sports Medicine, 1997
Stress fractures are common overuse injuries attributed to the repetitive trauma associated with vigorous weightbearing activities. A high index of suspicion is necessary to diagnose stress fractures of the femur because the symptoms may be vague. The precipitating factors, whether related to training errors or medical conditions, should be thoroughly ...

Interprosthetic Femoral Fractures

Journal of Orthopaedic Trauma, 2010
Interprosthetic femoral fractures, ones occurring between ipsilateral total hip and total knee arthroplasties, are an increasingly common and challenging problem for orthopaedic surgeons. The purpose of this study was to report specific fracture locations and treatment outcomes associated with a protocol of femoral plate fixation that spanned the ...
