The evaluation of the results of femoral neck fractures treated with the Richard s hip screw

Abstract

The femoral neck fractures remain one of the unsolved fractures. it is a fracture with a high incidence of nonunion and avascular necrosis. Between January 1985 and December 1990 in Department of Orthopaedic and Traumatology Clinic in Ege University, forty-six (32 male, 14 female) mostly young adult patients with femoral neck fractures were treated by the Richards hip screw. In twenty-nine cases, the Richards screw were supported by short threat AO 6.5 mm cancellous screws. Thirty-nine of the patients were observed for an average of 37 (Min, 14, Max. 47) months. Twelve of Group 1 and 27 of Group 2 were reevaluated. The results obtained by using only Richards compression screw (Group 1 ) and the ones supported by canceflous screw (Group 2) were compared. The early complications, the beginning of rehabilitation, early weight bearing, duration of healing, the rotation problems of the fracture area were better in Group 2. The incidence of nonunion was %25 in Group 1. and %14 in Group 2. There was no significant difference in avascular necrosis rates between groups. it was observed that when canceflous screws was used in Garde.n 3. and 4. displaced fractures, the stability was increased in the fractured area.
