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]
, 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.

Treatment of ununited femoral neck fractures in young adults using low-intensity pulsed ultrasound: Report of 2 cases [PDF]
, 2016 IntroductionDelayed union and non-union of displaced femoral neck fractures remains a difficult clinical problem for orthopaedic surgeons. In the physiologically young patient, every effort should be made to preserve the native hip joint.

Safe range of femoral neck system insertion and the risk of perforation
Journal of Orthopaedic Surgery and Research, 2023 Background Internal fixation of the femoral neck carries a risk of perforation due to the presence of the isthmus of the femoral neck. At present, there are few studies on the safe and risk zones of the femoral neck system (FNS) implantation.

Femoral Neck Non-Union - A Biomechanical Solution with Valgus Sliding Subtrochanteric Osteotomy: A Case Report [PDF]
Malaysian Orthopaedic Journal, 2020 Avascular necrosis and non-union are two most dreaded complications of femoral neck fracture fixations. Hip replacement seems to be a simple solution for this complex problem.

The impact of high total cholesterol and high low-density lipoprotein on avascular necrosis of the femoral head in low-energy femoral neck fractures [PDF]
, 2017 BACKGROUND: Avascular necrosis of the femoral head (AVNFH) typically constitutes 5 to 15% of all complications of low-energy femoral neck fractures, and due to an increasingly ageing population and a rising prevalence of femoral neck fractures, the ...

Clinical application of modified hip joint lateral position in femoral neck fracture
Journal of Orthopaedic Surgery and Research, 2023 Background To show the femoral neck better in hip lateral view of X-ray, we design a modified hip lateral view and then investigate the value in femoral neck fractures.
