Analysis on risk factors for neck shortening after internal fixation for Pauwels II femoral neck fracture in young patients

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Medical Research, 2021
Background Femoral neck shortening can occur in young patients receiving internal fixation for Pauwels type II femoral neck fracture. The risk factors for neck shortening, which can affect hip function, are not clear.

Outcomes of total hip arthroplasty, as a salvage procedure, following failed internal fixation of intracapsular fractures of the femoral neck: a systematic review and meta-analysis. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
AIMS: The optimal management of intracapsular fractures of the femoral neck in independently mobile patients remains open to debate. Successful fixation obviates the limitations of arthroplasty for this group of patients.

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

Challenging the dogma to “always operate” acute hip fractures: a proof-of-concept pilot study for nonoperative management of undisplaced femoral neck fractures

open access: yesPatient Safety in Surgery, 2022
Background The notion that all acute hip fractures are a surgical entity requiring either surgical fracture fixation or hip replacement represents a historic dogma, particularly within the orthopaedic community of the United States.

Contribution to the method for determining femoral neck axis [PDF]

open access: yesSrpski Arhiv za Celokupno Lekarstvo, 2014
Introduction. Femoral neck axis plotting is of great significance in measuring parameters that define femoral head-neck junction sphericity in the group of patients with the femoroacetabular impingement.

Occult femoral neck fracture [PDF]

open access: yesBMJ Case Reports, 2017
A 77-year-old woman presented to the emergency department with persistent pain that developed in the right hip after a fall from a standing height. A radiograph and CT of the right hip revealed no evidence of fracture (figure 1A,B), but MRI revealed oedema of the right femoral neck (T1-weighted coronal imaging; figure 1C). She was treated …

Bone mineral density in Iranian patients: Effects of age, sex, and body mass index [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Introduction: Osteoporosis is a multifactorial skeletal disease that is characterized by reduced bone mineral density (BMD). BMD values de-pend on several factors such as age, sex and age at menopause.

Does fully-threaded Headless Compression Screw provide a length-stable fixation in undisplaced femoral neck fractures?

open access: yesAsian Journal of Surgery, 2019
Summary: Objective: Femoral neck shortening is a common complication after surgical treatment for intracapsular femoral neck fractures. This study investigated whether fully-threaded Headless Compression Screw (FTHCS) can be a more length-stable implant

Femoral neck fracture combined with anterior dislocation of the femoral head: injury mechanism and proposed novel classification

open access: yesBMC Musculoskeletal Disorders, 2021
Background Femoral neck fracture combined with anterior dislocation of the femoral head is very rare. To our knowledge, there is no classification system yet for this rare form of injury, and the injury mechanism of femoral neck fracture combined with ...
