Fracture of the femoral head is a severe, relatively uncommon injury; typically, it occurs following traumatic posterior dislocation of the hip joint. The Pipkin classification is the most commonly used classification system. Diagnosis is aided by a complete history, physical examination, and imaging, including computed tomography.

Hip arthroplasty for the treatment of displaced fractures of the femoral neck in elderly patients.
The Bone & Joint Journal, 2016UNLABELLED This review summarises the evidence for the treatment of displaced fractures of the femoral neck in elderly patients. Results from randomised clinical trials and national register studies are presented when available.

Femoral head fractures are consequential but uncommon injuries. Because of their relatively rare occurrence, large series with validated outcomes have not been published, to our knowledge. However, the available literature provides important insights into the treatment of these challenging fractures.

History of femoral head fracture and coronal fracture of the femoral condyles
International Orthopaedics, 2015The first known description of the coronal fracture of the lateral femoral condyle was published by Busch in 1869. Hoffa used Busch's drawing in the first edition of his book in 1888 and accompanied it only with one sentence. A full case history of this fracture pattern was described by Braun in 1891.

Despite the tremendous advances in the science and practice of orthopaedic surgery, anesthesia, and perioperative care, repair of displaced fractures of the neck of the femur is still associated with complications in up to one third of patients. The risk of nonunion and osteonecrosis in particular is virtually the same today as in the 1930s.

Periprosthetic Femoral Fractures
Journal of the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons, 1994Fracture of the femoral shaft around a hip prosthesis presents the simultaneous problems of prosthetic stability and femoral- fracture management. Treatment options include nonoperative stabilization (traction) and operative stabilization by means of intramedullary fixation, extramedullary fixation, or proximal femoral prosthetic replacement.

Femoral neck fractures: current management.
Journal of Orthopaedics and Trauma, 2015Femoral neck fractures are a commonly encountered injury in orthopaedic practice and result in significant morbidity and mortality. It is essential that surgeons are able to recognize specific fracture patterns and patient characteristics that indicate ...

Predictors of failure for cephalomedullary nailing of proximal femoral fractures.
The Bone & Joint Journal, 2014The purpose of this study was to identify factors that predict implant cut-out after cephalomedullary nailing of intertrochanteric and subtrochanteric hip fractures, and to test the significance of calcar referenced tip-apex distance (CalTAD) as a ...

Trochanteric Femoral Fractures
Acta chirurgiae orthopaedicae et traumatologiae Cechoslovaca, 2013At 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.

Unstable Pertrochanteric Femoral Fractures
Journal of Orthopaedic Trauma, 2005Fractures in the trochanteric region of the femur are classified as AO/OTA 31-A, as they are extracapsular (). This report analyzes the relatively rare 31-A3 fracture, which has also been referred to as an "intertrochanteric femur fracture with subtrochanteric extension," "reverse obliquity intertrochanteric femur fracture," "unstable intertrochanteric
