Femoral Neck Stress Fractures in Military Personnel

Journal of Nepal Medical Association, 2009
Introduction: Stress fractures are common during military training but femoral neck stress fractures are uncommon and sometimes pose diagnostic and therapeutic challenges. An incomplete stress fracture with excellent prognosis, if left unprotected, can

Effective treatment of a steroid-induced femoral neck fracture nonunion with a once-weekly administration of teriparatide in a rheumatoid patient: a case report [PDF]

, 2013
INTRODUCTION: Nonunion of femoral neck fractures frequently occurs in elderly patients. In patients with rheumatoid arthritis, reoperation rates after internal fixation of a displaced femoral neck fracture increase by up to 60 %.

Technologies for Young Femoral Neck Fracture Fixation.

Journal of Orthopaedics and Trauma, 2019
Fixation of young femoral neck fractures represents a challenge in the field of orthopaedic trauma surgery. Conventional methods, including cannulated screw and sliding hip screw constructs, have been studied and found to have similar results with ...

Clinical Outcome of Free Vascularized Fibula Graft for Nonunion of Garden IV Femoral Neck Fracture of 13 Years Duration: A Case Report

Orthopaedic Surgery, 2022
Background Femoral neck fractures in young patients are mostly caused by high‐energy trauma and demonstrate more displacement and vertical fracture surfaces, which increase nonunion and osteonecrosis risks.

Evaluation of a pig femoral head osteonecrosis model [PDF]

, 2010
Background A major cause of osteonecrosis of the femoral head is interruption of a blood supply to the proximal femur. In order to evaluate blood circulation and pathogenetic alterations, a pig femoral head osteonecrosis model was examined to address ...

The role of the medial plate for Pauwels type III femoral neck fracture: a comparative mechanical study using two fixations with cannulated screws

Journal of Experimental Orthopaedics, 2019
BackgroundThe biomechanical behavior of Pauwels type III fractures should be taken into consideration when performing internal fixation, since this repair should resist the shear force inherent in the vertical fracture line to the greatest extent ...

Delayed recognition of an ipsilateral femoral neck and shaft fracture leading to preventable subsequent complications: a case report

Patient Safety in Surgery, 2017
Background Ipsilateral femoral shaft and neck fractures are rare injuries, affecting mostly young patients who sustained high-energy traumas. In 19–50% of cases, the femoral fracture is misdiagnosed or overlooked at the initial presentation, with ...

Guidance for the Treatment of Femoral Neck Fracture with Precise Minimally Invasive Internal Fixation Based on the Orthopaedic Surgery Robot Positioning System

Orthopaedic Surgery, 2019
Femoral neck fractures are among the most common fractures in orthopaedics. There are many surgical methods for the treatment of femoral neck fracture. Percutaneous cannulated lag screw fixation for the treatment of femoral neck fractures is favored by ...

Performance of the resurfaced hip. Part 1: the influence of the prosthesis size and positioning on the remodelling and fracture of the femoral neck

, 2010
Hip resurfacing is an established treatment for osteoarthritis in young active patients. Failure modes include femoral neck fracture and prosthesis loosening, which may be associated with medium-term bone adaptation, including femoral neck narrowing and ...
