چکیده
Neglected fracture of neck of femur in young adults is a major problem in developing countries. Existing treatment options varies from osteotomy to various graft techniques (muscle pedicle, vascularized and nonvascularized fibula etc.). There is paucity of literature regarding the use of double angle barrel plate and hip screw in such cases. We conducted a prospective longitudinal observational study with displaced, neglected fracture neck of femur in young adults and compared the results with literature.
