Hemiarthroplasty for Femoral Neck Fracture [PDF]

JBJS Essential Surgical Techniques, 2019
Hemiarthroplasty is a common treatment for femoral neck fractures in the elderly population. The main complications are periprosthetic dislocation and infection, which potentially impact morbidity and quality of life and may contribute to mortality. This procedure can be technically demanding, and adequate closure of the capsule and soft tissue cannot ...
