Material and Methods: This is a retrospective study from January 1, 2011 to December 31, 2015, concerning patients hospitalized for fractures of femoral neck and having been operated by screwing. The variables studied were epidemiological and therapeutic aspects. Anatomical results were examined on standard x rays of the pelvis in front and the hip in profil, based on the consolidation of the bony axis. Functional results were analyzed according to the quotation of Postel Merle D’Aubigné. Results: Eleven screwings of femoral neck have been done to 11 patients (9 men and 2 women), average age was 47 years (29 and 60 years) from January 2011 to December 2015, at the mean recoil of 19 months (12 and 24 months). Amongst consolidated patients (n = 7), one patient presented a necrosis of femoral head at two years hindsight. Four patients presented an aseptic pseudarthrosis of femoral neck, or a bad anatomical result. Amidst this group of patients, one underwent a joint replacement type Moore and suggestion of intermediary prothesis was recommended to three patients. According to the quotation of Postel Merle D’Aubigné, results were very satisfactory to 5 patients, good to 2 patients and bad to 4 patients. According to the score of Parker, 7 patients presented a score of 9 and 4 patients a score of 7. Conclusion: The treatment of femoral neck fractures in adulthood requires a surgical approach by osteosynthesis and must be precocious before 24 hours in order to reduce risks of pseudarthrosis of femoral neck and necrosis of femoral head.展开更多

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

Methods： A retrospective study was conducted to analyse the clinical data of 42 elderly patients who had been treated for femoral neck fracture with DHS in our department between June 2009 and November 2011. There were 21 males and 21 females with a mean age of 68.5 years （range 60-75 years）. According to the Garden Classification, there were 19 cases of type II, 21 cases of type III and 2 cases of type IV fractures. By the Singh In- dex Classification, there were 3 cases of level 2, 19 cases of level 3 and 20 cases of level 4 fractures. The Harris cri- terion, complications and function recovery after operation were analysed. Results： The average hospitalization time in 42 patients was 11.2 days （range 7-21 days）. All patients were followed up for 12-26 months （mean 18 months）. No lung infection, deep venous thrombosis or other complications occurred. Partial backing-out of the screws was found in 2 cases. The internal fixation device was with- drawn after fracture healing. Internal fixation cutting was found in 1 case, and he had a good recovery after total hip arthroplasty. The time for fracture healing ranged from 3-6 months （average 4.5 months）. According to Harris criteri- on, 15 cases were rated as excellent, 24 good, 2 fair and 1 poor. The Harris scale was significantly improved from 30.52＋2.71 preoperatively to 86.61＋2.53 at 6 months post- operatively （P〈0.05）. Conclusion： DHS, being minimal invasive, al- lowing early activity and weight-bearing, is advisable for treatment of elderly patients with femoral neck fracture. In addition, it can avoid complications seen in artificial joint replacement. It is especially suitable for patients with mild osteoporosis.展开更多

We aims to assess the results of valgus osteotomy in femoral neck fracture in our setup. Methods: We reported a series of 20 patients of higher Pauwel's angled fracture of femoral neck fracture presenting late wherein valgus osteotomy was added to reduction fixation which was secured with a commonly available 135 dynamic hip screw and plate. Results: Femoral neck fractures united in 16 patients (80%). Excellent to good results (Harris hip score >80) were seen in 70% patients. Angle of correction of preoperative Pauwels has been changed from 68.3 to 34.3. Conclusion: The 135 dynamic hip screw and plate provides rigid internal fixation after valgus osteotomy and being a more familiar fixation device simplifies the procedure with good results.展开更多
