Femoral Neck Shortening After Internal Fixation of a Femoral Neck Fracture [PDF]

Orthopedics, 2013
This study assesses femoral neck shortening and its effect on gait pattern and muscle strength in patients with femoral neck fractures treated with internal fixation. Seventy-six patients from a multicenter randomized controlled trial participated. Patient characteristics and Short Form 12 and Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis ...

Comparison of femoral neck shortening and outcomes between in situ fixation and fixation after reduction for severe valgus-impacted femoral neck fractures

Injury, 2021
Severe valgus-impacted femoral neck fractures are associated with femoral neck shortening (FNS). However, no study has focused on the effect of reduction for severe valgus impaction in terms of healing and restoration of the femoral neck length. This study aimed to compare FNS and treatment outcomes of in situ fixation and fixation after reduction for ...

Does fully-threaded Headless Compression Screw provide a length-stable fixation in undisplaced femoral neck fractures?

Asian Journal of Surgery, 2019
Summary: Objective: Femoral neck shortening is a common complication after surgical treatment for intracapsular femoral neck fractures. This study investigated whether fully-threaded Headless Compression Screw (FTHCS) can be a more length-stable implant

Femoral shortening does not impair functional outcome after internal fixation of femoral neck fractures in non-geriatric patients [PDF]

Archives of Orthopaedic and Trauma Surgery, 2018
Aim of this study was to investigate the incidence and extent of femoral shortening in non-geriatric patients after internal fixation of femoral neck fractures in relation to the clinical outcome at mid-term follow-up.Reviewing our admission data, we identified non-geriatric patients (18-65 years) with femoral neck fractures treated with either dynamic

The Effects and Risk Factors of Femoral Neck Shortening after Internal Fixation of Femoral Neck Fractures. [PDF]

Clin Orthop Surg
Internal fixation has been established as a treatment of choice in relatively young patients with femoral neck fractures. Due to the characteristics of femoral neck anatomy and blood supply, complications such as malunion, nonunion, avascular necrosis, and femoral neck shortening can occur after internal fixation of femoral neck fractures. Unlike other

Incidence, Magnitude, and Predictors of Shortening in Young Femoral Neck Fractures [PDF]

Journal of Orthopaedic Trauma, 2015
OBJECTIVES: To describe the incidence and magnitude of femoral neck fracture shortening in patients age younger than 60 years. Secondarily, to examine predictors of fracture shortening. DESIGN: Retrospective chart review. SETTING: Level I trauma centre. PATIENTS/PARTICIPANTS: Sixty-five patients with a median age of 51 years (interquartile range: 42-56

Clinical outcome of femoral neck system versus cannulated compression screws for fixation of femoral neck fracture in younger patients

Journal of Orthopaedic Surgery and Research, 2021
Background The clinical outcome of a new fixation device (femoral neck system, FNS) for femoral neck fractures remains unclear. The main purpose of this study was to evaluate two different internal fixation methods for the treatment of femoral neck ...
