Comparative Short-Term Outcomes of Femoral Neck System (FNS) and Cannulated Screw Fixation in Patients with Femoral Neck Fractures: A Multicenter Study

CONCLUSIONS: In femoral neck fractures, FNS and CS did not show significant differences for short-term radiologic results. FNS resulted in shorter operative time than cannulated screw fixation and favorable outcomes in Pauwels type III femoral neck fractures. The FNS could be considered a reliable and safe alternative to CS when treating femoral neck fractures.PMID:38562623 | PMC:PMC10973613 | DOI:10.4055/cios23190
