Operative Mortality After Arthroplasty for Femoral Neck Fracture and Hospital Volume

Geriatric Orthopaedic Surgery & Rehabilitation, 2015
Background: The purpose of the present study is to use a statewide, population-based data set to identify mortality rates at 30-day and 1-year postoperatively following total hip arthroplasty (THA) and hemiarthroplasty (HA) for displaced femoral neck ...

The Failure Rate of Internal Fixation Increases With Sagittal Displacement of the Femoral Head: A Retrospective Study

Health Care Science, EarlyView.
This study found that the degree of femoral head sagittal displacement is linked to the risk of internal fixation failure in femoral neck fracture. Measurements of the sagittal tilt angle of the femoral head (STAFH) using CT‐3D imaging showed high reliability (ICC = 0.97, 95% CI: 0.96–0.98). Patients with excessive sagittal displacement (anterior tilt ≥

Current Landscape of Short‐T2 Imaging Techniques in the Musculoskeletal System: The Past, Present and Future

Journal of Magnetic Resonance Imaging, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Conventional MRI is limited in imaging tissues with short T2 relaxation times, such as bone, ligaments, and cartilage, due to their rapid signal decay. This limitation has spurred the development of specialized MRI techniques designed specifically for short‐T2 tissue imaging.

Fixation using alternative implants for the treatment of hip fractures (FAITH): Design and rationale for a multi-centre randomized trial comparing sliding hip screws and cancellous screws on revision surgery rates and quality of life in the treatment of femoral neck fractures [PDF]

, 2014
Background: Hip fractures are a common type of fragility fracture that afflict 293,000 Americans (over 5,000 per week) and 35,000 Canadians (over 670 per week) annually.

Challenges in managing ipsilateral femoral neck and shaft fracture at Mission Hospital

CHRISMED Journal of Health and Research, 2016
Rarity of ipsilateral femoral neck and shaft fracture qualifies it as a difficult fracture to diagnose as well as treat. No ideal treatment option has been defined, and no ideal implant has been assigned for the management of such fractures.

Femoral Neck Fracture Fixation Failure: A Review and Stepwise Approach

Journal of Orthopedic and Spine Trauma, 2020
Femoral neck fractures are challenging injuries to treat, as they commonly involve high-energy trauma mechanisms and displaced fracture patterns. Despite the effective treatment techniques and devices available to fix these fractures, the cases of ...

Radiographer Preliminary Image Evaluation Accuracy in Interpreting Paediatric Trauma Radiographs

Journal of Medical Radiation Sciences, EarlyView.
Radiographer preliminary image evaluation (PIE) is a patient safety mechanism where radiographers provide a written comment describing potential pathology in radiographs they have acquired. This can assist emergency referrers in making a diagnosis when a radiologist's report is unavailable.

Association of osteoporotic fractures of femoral neck and femoral neck geometric parameters in native Chinese women

BMC Musculoskeletal Disorders
Background Although it is generally believed that the femoral neck fracture is related to the femoral neck geometric parameters (FNGPs), the association between the risk of osteoporotic fracture of the femoral neck and FNGPs in native Chinese women is ...

Cortical thickness mapping to identify focal osteoporosis in patients with hip fracture.

PLoS ONE, 2012
BackgroundIndividuals with osteoporosis are predisposed to hip fracture during trips, stumbles or falls, but half of all hip fractures occur in those without generalised osteoporosis.
