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.

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

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 ...

Correlation between Abnormal Gait Pattern With Femoral Neck Stress Fracture In Athletes: A Systematic Review

Orthopaedic Journal of Sports Medicine, 2023
Backgrounds: Stress fractures are common overuse injuries in the lower extremities. Repetitive episodes of high-intensity or extended-duration axial load to the leg place the bone at risk of stress-related injury. The femoral neck is an uncommon location

Occult femoral neck fracture [PDF]

BMJ Case Reports, 2017
A 77-year-old woman presented to the emergency department with persistent pain that developed in the right hip after a fall from a standing height. A radiograph and CT of the right hip revealed no evidence of fracture (figure 1A,B), but MRI revealed oedema of the right femoral neck (T1-weighted coronal imaging; figure 1C). She was treated …

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.

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 ...
