Vascularity of femoral head and its assessment after femoral neck fractures
Journal of Orthopaedic Diseases and Traumatology, 2018 Femoral neck fracture has an annual incidence of 1 per 1000 population; in young patients, functional prognosis is not good due to risk of osteonecrosis. Femoral head vascularity is mostly contributed by retinacular vessels and lateral epiphyseal artery.
