A STUDY OF TREATMENT OF FRACTURE NECK OF FEMUR IN ADULT USING BONE IMPREGNATED HIP SCREWS
Dr Jiju George, Dr Anizh Cheriyan
Abstract :
The increasing incidence of high velocity injuries increase the incidence of these fractures. Ideal treatment for these fractures has been surged by various Orthopaedics Surgeons in the past. Even though femoral neck fractures can occur at any age group, it is most commonly seen in elderly. Incidents of non–union and avascular necrosis are high in these fractures. The interruption or diminished circulation to the proximal fragment are the cardinal reasons for the non–union and avascular necrosis. Most of these fractures are unstable, absence of cambium layer of periosteum and bathing of fracture site by synovial fluid adds to the cause of above complication. Patients who have sustained an intra–capsular femoral neck fracture admitted in the Department of Orthopedics, Travancore Medical College, Kollam from July 2010 to August 2013 were taken for this study after taking their consent. Recommendation of BIHS as a novel implant and its long term benefits/ risks is difficult to evaluate in the present study due to the short follow up. It requires a longer follow up.
