A secondary atypical diaphyseal femoral fracture after intramedullary nailing for an atypical subtrochanteric femoral fracture: A case report

open access: yesTrauma Case Reports
Intramedullary nailing is the gold standard of treatment for atypical femoral fractures, with a few reports of secondary atypical subtrochanteric femoral fractures following intramedullary nailing for atypical diaphyseal femoral fractures. However, there

Femoral head fractures [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Orthopaedics, 2001
This report includes six patients with femoral head fractures. Five were associated with posterior hip dislocation, of which one also had an ipsilateral trochanteric fracture. All were young adults who had been injured in automobile accidents. The protocol for management, indications for surgery and guidelines for evaluation of results are described.

Lateral Femoral Bowing and the Location of Atypical Femoral Fractures

open access: yesHip & Pelvis, 2017
Purpose Atypical femoral fractures (AFFs) occur in two distinct part, subtrochanter and diaphysis. The aim of this study was to investigate the relationship between the lateral femoral bowing angle and the location of AFF.

Not All Garden-I and II Femoral Neck Fractures in the Elderly Should Be Fixed: Effect of Posterior Tilt on Rates of Subsequent Arthroplasty.

open access: yesJournal of Bone and Joint Surgery. American volume, 2019
BACKGROUND Internal fixation is currently the standard of care for Garden-I and II femoral neck fractures in elderly patients. However, there may be a degree of posterior tilt (measured on preoperative lateral radiograph) above which failure is likely ...

Dual-energy computed tomography may reduce delayed diagnosis of occult hip fractures: Experiences at a single center

open access: yesSAGE Open Medicine
Objectives: Early surgical intervention within 48 h is critical for reducing mortality and morbidity in patients with hip fractures. However, occult hip fractures are often missed, leading to treatment delays.

Occult periprosthetic femoral fractures occur frequently during a long, trapezoidal, double-tapered cementless femoral stem fixation in primary THA.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2019
The present study aimed to investigate the prevalence and clinical consequences of occult intra-operative periprosthetic femoral fractures in total hip arthroplasty (THA). Between 2012 and 2017, a total of 113 primary THAs were enrolled.

Hip geometry and femoral neck fractures: A meta-analysis

open access: yesJournal of Orthopaedic Translation, 2018
Background: Several studies have reported hip geometry to predict the femoral neck fractures. However, they showed inconsistency. Objectives: To determine the association between hip geometry and femoral neck fractures. Methods: Published literature from

Increased risk of intraoperative and early postoperative periprosthetic femoral fracture with uncemented stems: 7,169 total hip arthroplasties from 8 Danish centers

open access: yesActa Orthopaedica, 2017
Background and purpose — The use of uncemented fixation in total hip arthroplasty (THA) is increasing. Registry studies have indicated an increased risk of revision of uncemented implants due to early periprosthetic femoral fracture.
