Abstract:
[Objective]To investigate the clinical features,reasons of missed diagnosis and treatment for ipsilateral fractures of femoral neck and shaft.[Method]Twelve cases of ipsilateral fractures of femoral neck and shaft treated from 1999 to 2005 were retrospectively reviewed.Seven cases' neck fractures were diagnosed separately before operation,2 cases' were diagnosed during operation and 3 were diagnosed after operation.Among the 12 cases,3 cases were treated with reconstructive intramedullary nail to fix both shaft and neck fractures;2 cases were treated with DHS to fix both shaft and neck fractures;1 case was treated with retrograde interlocking intramedullary nail to fix shaft fracture and with canulated screws to fix neck fracture;2 cases were treated with interlocking intramedullary nails and canulated screws;1 case combined supracondylar fracture of femur,was treated with LISS-DF to fix shaft and supracondylar fracture,canulated screws to fix the neck fracture;the neck fractures were found in 3 cases after shaft fixation with plate,then fixed with canulated screws.[Result]All cases were followed up for 1~6 years,with an average of 3.4 years.All femoral shaft fractures were united and 11 neck fractures were united,1 neck fracture was malunion,1 case was osteonecrosis of femoral head.[Conclusion]The ipsilateral fracture of femoral neck and shaft is rare,and the neck fracture is easy to miss diagnosis.The orthopaedic surgeons should consider the femoral neck fractures by analyzing the mechanism of high energy injury patient with femoral shaft fracture.Pelvic X-ray should be taken conventionally or CT scan when necessary.The surgical treatment for ipsilateral fractures of femoral neck and shaft depends on the position of femoral shaft,and the situation of femoral neck.
