This study was aimed to compare the clinicoradiological outcome of femoral neck fracture treated with SHS or CCS in young adults. Methods: Adults (16-60 years) with femoral neck fracture were divided into Group I fixed with SHS and Group 2 fixed with three CCS after closed reduction. Pain relief, functional recovery and postoperative radiographs at 6 weeks, 3 months, 6 months and then yearly for upto 4 years were analyzed. Results: Group 1 (n = 40) achieved radiological union at mean of Z6 months, with the union rate of 8Z5% (n = 35), avascular necrosis (AVN) rate of 7.5% (n - 3) and mean Harris Hip Score (HHS) of 86.15 at the end of 4 years. In Group 2 (n = 45) these parameters were union at Z1 months, union rate of 82.22% (n = 37), AVN rate of 6.67% (n = 3) and HHS of 88.65. Comparative results were statistically insignificant. Conclusion: There is no significant difference in clinicoradiological outcome between the two implants.展开更多
