Femoral Neck Nonunion Treatment
Clinical Orthopaedics and Related Research, 2004Femoral neck fracture nonunion is a challenging complication for the orthopaedic surgeon. The etiology of nonunion can be complicated and multifactorial. The diagnosis usually is established clearly with clinical and radiographic examinations. There are no clear guidelines for treatment, although multiple factors must be taken into account.

Surgical interventions consisting of internal fixation (IF) or total hip replacement (THR) are required to restore patient mobility after hip fractures. Conventionally, this decision was based solely upon the degree of fracture displacement. However, in the last ten years, there has been a move to incorporate patient characteristics into the decision ...

Fifty-four femoral neck stress fractures were studied prospectively to evaluate treatment methods. Fifty-four fractures in 49 patients were identified in a 4 year prospective study that included 1,049 stress fractures of all types. From our evaluation of treatment methods, a modification of existing classification systems was developed based on ...

FEMORAL NECK ANTEVERSION IN PERSPECTIVE
Journal of Pediatric Orthopaedics, 1982Routine evaluation of anteversion by biplanar radiographic means is unreliable, poorly reproducible, and unnecessary. Isolated measurement of femoral neck anteversion is a concept which has outlived its usefulness. The relationship of the femoral head to the acetabulum is more important than the direct measurement of femoral anteversion.

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.

Self-designed Femoral Neck Guide Pin Locator for Femoral Neck Fractures
Orthopedics, 2014Closed reduction and fixation with 3 cannulated screws is a widely accepted surgery for the treatment of femoral neck fractures. However, how to obtain optimal screw placement remains unclear. In the current study, the authors designed a guide pin positioning system for femoral neck fracture cannulated screw fixation and examined its ...

Femoral neck stress fractures are unusual but not rare athletic injuries. In one large series they accounted for 5% of all stress fractures. Early recognition of the signs and symptoms of this injury is important, as objective findings are often delayed. The potential problems from this fracture are serious.

The incidence of hip fractures worldwide is expected to almost quadruple in the next 60 years (1). In addition to the acute limitations associated with a hip fracture, most patients continue to suffer from difficulties in performing activities of daily living (2), and their related mortality is high.

Fractures of the proximal femur, commonly termed hip fracture, is a devastating injury for any age of patient. The injury carries a high mortality as well as significant morbidity and impact of function. They can be divided into intracapsular (also called subcapital) fractures and extracapsular fractures.

Orthopadie (Heidelberg, Germany), 2023
Femoral neck fractures (FNF) are the most frequent fractures in the older population and are also of high socioeconomic importance due to the high risk of mortality. The diagnostics are based on the clinical examination and imaging procedures. The classification systems used in the routine clinical practice are oriented towards the prognosis and are ...
