Pseudopathologic fracture of the femoral neck

Skeletal Radiology, 1981
We have seen two cases of traumatic subcapital fractures of the femoral neck which resembled pathologic fractures on plain radiography. We have named this entity “pseudopathologic fracture of the femoral neck” and offer suggestions for why it occurs.

SPONTANEOUS FRACTURES OF THE FEMORAL NECK

The Journal of Bone and Joint Surgery. British volume, 1962
1. 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.

Fractures of the femoral neck in adolescence

Injury, 1972
A series of fractures of the femoral neck in adolescence is presented. Most of the fractures were of the transcervical type. Treatment with plaster fixation or wire proved to be inadequate in displaced fractures in adolescence. When using a trifin nail a better result was obtained and a hole was drilled for the nail but in some cases the nail slipped ...

Fibrous dysplasia of the femoral neck

Skeletal Radiology, 1984
Fibrous dysplasia of the femur is usually observed in the intertrochanteric region. It is rarely confined to the femoral neck. We present four cases illustrating the radiographic appearance and spectrum of this condition which all showed the relatively lucent variety of fibrous dysplasia with varying degrees of expansion and surrounding sclerosis.

Cortical Index of the Femoral Neck

Acta Radiologica. Diagnosis, 1977
The thickness of the medial cortex of the femoral neck does not decrease with age in the same way as other common parameters of bone mass. However, in women with fracture of the upper end of the femur, it is below normal. The variable, expressed as the cortical index of the femoral neck may have some use in predicting the risk of femoral neck fracture ...

Predicting fracture of the femoral neck

Journal of Biomechanics, 2007
A prediction of the probability of safe loading of the femoral neck, based on queueing theory, is presented. The following methods have been applied: (I) criterion of bone fracture was formulated, taking into consideration the complex state of stress-strain in the porosity zones of the bone; (II) tensile stresses around pores in the stretched zone of ...

Comminuted Fracture of Femoral Neck

JAMA, 1964
Dr. W. A. Mnaymneh: A 38-year-old woman fell from a chair lift at a skiing resort one week prior to admission to this hospital. She dropped a distance of about ten feet, noted acute pain in her left hip, and was unable to walk. She was admitted to the local hospital and treated with Russell traction until her transfer here.

Modular neck femoral stems

The Bone & Joint Journal, 2013
Following the recall of modular neck hip stems in July 2012, research into femoral modularity will intensify over the next few years. This review aims to provide surgeons with an up-to-date summary of the clinically relevant evidence. The development of femoral modularity, and a classification system, is described.

Stress Fractures of the Femoral Neck

Clinical Orthopaedics and Related Research, 1998
Stress fractures of the femoral neck are uncommon injuries. In general these injuries are seen in two distinct populations: (1) young, healthy, active individuals such as recreational runners, endurance athletes, or military recruits; and (2) the elderly who have osteoporosis.

Femoral Neck Stress Fracture

Journal of Orthopaedic & Sports Physical Therapy, 2013
The patient was a 19-year-old woman who recently completed a military basic training program. She was evaluated by a physical therapist in a direct-access capacity for a chief complaint of anterior right hip pain that limited her ability to run. Due to the limited sensitivity of radiographs, magnetic resonance imaging of the right hip was obtained ...
