Femoral Neck Fractures

Orthopedic Clinics of North America, 2002
Femoral neck fractures in the geriatric patient continue to represent a therapeutic challenge. Despite advances in surgical techniques and medical care, the risk of nonunion and osteonecrosis after fixation have not changed appreciably in the last 50 years.

Osteochondroma of the Femoral Neck

Clinical Orthopaedics and Related Research, 2002
Osteochondromas of the femoral neck represent intraarticular lesions and are difficult to access for surgical resection, especially when located posteriorly. A versatile surgical approach with dislocation of the femoral head is described through which reliable resection of the osteochondroma can be done respecting the crucial blood supply to the ...

Fractures of the Femoral Neck

Acta chirurgiae orthopaedicae et traumatologiae Cechoslovaca, 2011
The ideal treatment of the intracapsular fracture of the femoral neck still is subject of discussion. The demographic development of the population in Europe with fractures of the neck of femur being typical in the older patient, requires conclusive and stringent concepts of treatment.

FEMORAL NECK ANTEVERSION IN PERSPECTIVE

Journal of Pediatric Orthopaedics, 1982
Routine 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.

Prediction of the femoral neck-shaft angle from the length of the femoral neck

Clinical Anatomy, 1997
A total of 171 adult South Indian femora, devoid of gross pathology, are used to measure the neck-shaft angle, length of the neck, intertrochanteric apical axis length, maximum vertical diameter of the head, kinematic radius, and maximum femoral length.

Fibromyxoma of the femoral neck

Journal of Cancer Research and Clinical Oncology, 1981
A case of fibromyxoma of the long bone is presented. This benign bone tumor is more often found in the bones of the jaw, but is a rare lesion in extragnathic bones. IN the presented case of a 28-year-old man the tumor was situated in the right femoral neck.

Osteonecrosis of the femoral head extending into the femoral neck

Skeletal Radiology, 2012
Osteonecrosis of the femoral head (ONFH) is an ischemic disorder that can lead to femoral head collapse and secondary osteoarthritis. Although the condition is usually limited to the femoral head, we report a rare case of biopsy-proven ONFH extending into the femoral neck, which required hip replacement surgery.

Femoral neck fracture: a complication of femoral nailing

Injury, 1995
A fracture of the shaft of the femur in adults is common after road traffic accidents. Until recently it was not known that a fracture of the femoral neck can occur while fixing the femoral shaft fracture with an intramedullary nail. We report three patients in whom femoral neck fractures occurred during femoral nailing.

Occult fractures of the femoral neck

The American Journal of Emergency Medicine, 1992
Occult fractures of the femoral neck can be subtle or even undetectable on plain radiographs. Yet, untreated, the morbidity of this fracture significantly increases. This report discusses the clinical and radiologic findings seen in occult fractures of the femoral neck.

Epidemiology of femoral neck fractures

Injury, 2002
Fractures of the femoral neck, that is, "cervical hip fractures" constitute 53% of all fractures of the proximal femur (hip fractures) according to the Swedish National Hip Fracture Register linked to SAHFE (Standardised Audit of Hip Fractures in Europe).
