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, 2002Osteochondromas 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 ...

Survivability of the Femoral Neck System for the treatment of femoral neck fractures in adults
European Journal of Orthopaedic Surgery & Traumatology, 2023Hip fractures are common injuries in the elderly, with an incidence that continues to rise. The femoral neck system (FNS) recently emerged as a novel treatment option for femoral neck fractures, but long-term survivability of the implant remains uncertain.

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.

Prediction of the femoral neck-shaft angle from the length of the femoral neck
Clinical Anatomy, 1997A 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.

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.

Fibromyxoma of the femoral neck
Journal of Cancer Research and Clinical Oncology, 1981A 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.

Fracture of Femoral Head and Femoral Neck
2020Femoral neck fractures generally are caused by low-energy trauma, most of which occur in the elderly. Possible damage mechanisms include direct impact on the greater trochanter during the fall, pronation of the lower extremities, and torsion caused by an external force.

The femoral neck, which is situated between the femoral head and the trochanters of the thigh, is divided into three sections. The medial region is defined as the area between the femoral head and the field of maximal tapering. Adjacent is situated the lateral region of the femoral neck.

SPONTANEOUS FRACTURES OF THE FEMORAL NECK
The Journal of Bone and Joint Surgery. British volume, 19621. Aching pain in the thigh, hip or buttock in an elderly person should lead to radiological examination of the hip region. In patients who have been subjected to irradiation for pelvic neoplasms a spontaneous fracture should be strongly suspected and the patient kept under close review, even if the first radiograph is negative. 2.
