Subtrochanteric fracture after femoral neck system of femoral neck fractures: a report of four cases [PDF]

BMC Musculoskeletal Disorders, 2023
Background The femoral neck system (FNS) is commonly used for internal fixation of femoral neck fractures and has shown promising results. However, we have observed cases of peri-implant subtrochanteric femur fractures associated with the use of FNS at ...

Bilateral fractures of the femoral neck

Journal of Medical Sciences, 2022
Bilateral fractures of the femoral neck are rare and are usually associated with underlying bone diseases, previous metabolic diseases, high-energy trauma, electroshock, or seizure attack. Low-energy trauma, such as a fall, related bilateral fractures of

Femoral neck fracture after femoral head necrosis: a case report and review of the literature

BMC Musculoskeletal Disorders, 2023
Introduction Pathological fractures of the femoral neck caused by necrosis of the femoral head are extremely rare. Here, we report a rare case of bilateral femoral head osteonecrosis extending to the femoral neck, with bilateral pathological fractures of

Challenging the dogma to “always operate” acute hip fractures: a proof-of-concept pilot study for nonoperative management of undisplaced femoral neck fractures

Patient Safety in Surgery, 2022
Background The notion that all acute hip fractures are a surgical entity requiring either surgical fracture fixation or hip replacement represents a historic dogma, particularly within the orthopaedic community of the United States.

Incidence and factors influencing neck shortening after screw fixation of femoral neck fractures with the femoral neck system

Journal of Orthopaedic Surgery and Research, 2023
Objective To investigate the effects of postoperative femoral neck shortening in patients with femoral neck fractures fixed with femoral neck system screws (FNS) and to explore the factors influencing femoral neck shortening.

Outcomes of total hip arthroplasty, as a salvage procedure, following failed internal fixation of intracapsular fractures of the femoral neck: a systematic review and meta-analysis. [PDF]

, 2016
AIMS: The optimal management of intracapsular fractures of the femoral neck in independently mobile patients remains open to debate. Successful fixation obviates the limitations of arthroplasty for this group of patients.

Hip geometry and femoral neck fractures: A meta-analysis

Journal of Orthopaedic Translation, 2018
Background: Several studies have reported hip geometry to predict the femoral neck fractures. However, they showed inconsistency. Objectives: To determine the association between hip geometry and femoral neck fractures. Methods: Published literature from

The impact of high total cholesterol and high low-density lipoprotein on avascular necrosis of the femoral head in low-energy femoral neck fractures [PDF]

, 2017
BACKGROUND: Avascular necrosis of the femoral head (AVNFH) typically constitutes 5 to 15% of all complications of low-energy femoral neck fractures, and due to an increasingly ageing population and a rising prevalence of femoral neck fractures, the ...
