Abstract:
Objective:To compare the clinical efficacy of femoral neck system (FNS) and cannulated screw fixation in the treatment of femoral neck fracture in the young and middle-aged patients.Methods:A retrospective cohort study was conducted to analyze the clinical data of 76 young and middle-aged patients with femoral neck fracture admitted to Honghui Hospital Affiliated to Xi′an Jiaotong University from March 2018 to September 2020, including 45 males and 31 females, aged 23-63 years [(49.5±8.2)years]. Garden classification of the fracture was 25 patients with type II, 34 with type III and 17 with type IV. Pauwels classification of the fracture was 16 patients with type I, 31 with type II and 29 with type III. A total of 40 patients were treated with cannulated screw fixation (cannulated screw group) and 36 patients with FNS fixation (FNS group). Operation time, frequency of fluoroscopy, length of hospital stay, weight-bearing time and bone union time were compared between the two groups. Hip function was assessed by Harris hip score at 6, 12 months after operation. The incidence of postoperative complications was observed.Results:All patients were followed up for 12-20 months [(15.2±1.7)months]. The frequency of fluoroscopy [(13.4±1.9)times], weight-bearing time [(11.1±1.9)weeks] and bone union time [(13.8±1.6)weeks] in FNS group were lower or shorter than those in cannulated screw group [(18.2±2.6)times, (15.7±1.6)weeks, (14.6±1.6)weeks] (all P<0.05 or 0.01). There were no significant differences in operation time, length of hospital stay and Harris hip score at 6, 12 months after operation between the two groups (all P>0.05). No postoperative infection occurred in both groups. In cannulated screw group, there were 4 patients with femoral neck shortening, 3 with deep venous thrombosis, 2 with internal fixation loosening, 2 with nail withdrawal and 1 with fracture non-union, showing the incidence of complications of 30% (12/40). In FNS group, there was 2 patients with femoral neck shortening, 1 with deep vein thrombosis and 1 with internal fixation loosening, showing the incidence of complications of 11% (4/36) ( P<0.05). Conclusion:For femoral neck fracture in the young and middle-aged patients, both FNS and cannulated screw fixation can obtain satisfactory efficacy, but FNS has the advantages of decreased frequency of intraoperative fluoroscopy, early weight bearing, reduced time to bone union and low incidence of complications.
