The Result of Muscle Pedicle Bone Graft (Judet) for Displaced Femoral Neck Fracture.

grafting for displaced femoral neck fracture in young adults

19 Objective: Avascular necrosis of femoral head and nonunion is a major complication 20 after the treatment of displaced femoral neck fracture in young adults. 21 The purpose of this study was to introduce a new technique using biodegradable 22 magnesium screws and vascularised iliac grafting for displaced femoral neck fracture 23 in young adults. 24 Methods: Totally 19 patients with displaced...

Outcomes after fixation for undisplaced femoral neck fracture compared to hemiarthroplasty for displaced femoral neck fracture among the elderly

BACKGROUND This study compared the rates of mortality, medical complication, and reoperation after fixation surgery for displaced femoral neck fracture with those after hemiarthroplasty surgery for undisplaced femoral neck fracture using competing risk analysis in inpatients aged 60 years and above from a population database in Taiwan. METHODS We identified 13,772 subjects who underwent fixat...

Delayed hospitalization increases mortality in displaced femoral neck fracture patients

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Reports regarding the relationship between delayed surgery and mortality in femoral neck fracture patients are contradictory. We could not find any study in the literature investigating delayed arrival to hospital and delayed surgery as separate factors affecting mortality in femoral neck fracture patients, which was the purpose of our study. PATIENTS AND METHODS We ana...

Internal fixation of ununited femoral neck fractures combined with muscle-pedicle bone grafting.

Fifty-six patients with ununited intracapsular fractures of the femoral neck were treated by internal fixation and muscle-pedicle bone grafting. All had some absorption of the femoral neck, and many had avascular necrosis of the femoral head. At operation the sclerosed surfaces of the fractures were freshened, the avascular femoral head was decompressed and the muscle-pedicle graft was fixed wi...
