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]
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
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

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

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
