Abstract:
Objective:To explore the classification and treatment strategy of femoral neck fracture combined with ipsilateral intertrochanteric fracture.Methods:A retrospective analysis was performed of the 44 patients who had been admitted to Department of Orthopedics, Liangxiang Teaching Hospital, Capital Medical University from March 2003 to March 2019 for femoral neck fracture combined with ipsilateral intertrochanteric fracture. They were 19 males and 25 females, aged from 37 to 93 years (average, 77.9 years). According to the anatomical location and displacement severity, the femoral neck fractures were divided into 3 types while the intertrochanteric fractures were classified as stable or unstable ones. There were 3 cases of type Ⅰ which were completely extracapsular ones, 31 cases of type Ⅱ which were intracapsular stable ones, and 10 cases of type Ⅲ which were intracapsular unstable ones. Types Ⅰ and Ⅱ fractures were treated with intramedullary fixation, and type Ⅲ fractures with cemented hip hemi-replacement+reduction and fixation of the intertrochanteric fracture with Kirschner wires and steel cables. Recorded were fracture healing time, function of the affected hip and complications.Results:The 44 patients were followed up for at least 2 years. The fracture healing time for the 3 patients with type I fracture averaged 5.6 months (from 4.4 to 6.8 months); their hip function at the last follow-up, evaluated by the Harris scoring system, was excellent in 2 cases and good in one case. For 30 of the 31 patients with type Ⅱ fracture, the fracture healing time averaged 7.2 months (from 5.1 to 9.3 months); their hip function at the last follow-up, evaluated by the Harris scoring system, was excellent in 18 cases, good in 6 cases, fair in 5 cases, and poor in 2 cases, giving an excellent and good rate of 77.4% (24/31). As for complications, withdrawal or cutting-out of the head screw happened in 6 cases, infection in one case and nonunion in one case. In 10 patients with type Ⅲ fracture, the hip function at the last follow-up was excellent in 7 cases, good in 2 cases and poor in one case.Conclusions:For type Ⅰ and type Ⅱ femoral neck fractures combined with ipsilateral intertrochanteric fracture, intramedullary fixation with angulation stability may be a proper choice. For type Ⅲ ones, hip joint replacement should be the first choice.
