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.

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.

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.

Epidemiology of femoral neck fractures
Injury, 2002Fractures 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).

Occult fractures of the femoral neck
The American Journal of Emergency Medicine, 1992Occult 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.

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.

Pseudopathologic fracture of the femoral neck
Skeletal Radiology, 1981We 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.

Fractures of the proximal femur, commonly termed hip fracture, is a devastating injury for any age of patient. The injury carries a high mortality as well as significant morbidity and impact of function. They can be divided into intracapsular (also called subcapital) fractures and extracapsular fractures.
