ABSTRACT

Abstract Objective Tranexamic acid (TXA) is an antifibrinolytic that is widely used for decreasing blood loss and blood transfusion rates in total hip arthroplasty. However, there is limited evidence of topical TXA usage in hip hemiarthroplasty for femoral neck fractures. The present study aimed to evaluate the effects of topical TXA on blood loss and on blood transfusions in femoral neck fracture patients who underwent cemented bipolar hemiarthroplasty. Methods Twenty-six patients with femoral neck fractures who were scheduled for bipolar cemented arthroplasty were randomized into two groups. The first group of 12 patients received topical TXA during their operation, whereas 14 patients in the second group received a placebo. Hematocrit was measured at 6 and 24 hours postoperatively. Blood transfusions and postoperative complications were also recorded. Results Total blood loss was not different between the TXA group and the control group (TXA group: 459.48 ± 456.32 ml, and control group: 732.98 ± 474.02 ml; p = 0.14). However, there were no patients within the TXA group who required a blood transfusion, while there were 4 patients in the control group who received allogenic blood transfusions (p = 0.044). There were no postoperative complications, such as wound complication, venous thromboembolism, or cardiovascular complications within either group. Conclusion Topical TXA could not decrease total blood loss but was able to reduce transfusion rates in patients who underwent cemented bipolar hip hemiarthroplasty in femoral neck fractures. Further studies in doses of topical TXA in a larger sample size would be beneficial. Level of Evidence II.


Resumo Objetivo O ácido tranexâmico (TXA) é um antifibrinolítico amplamente utilizado para diminuir as taxas de perda de sangue e de transfusão de sangue na artroplastia total do quadril. No entanto, há evidências limitadas de uso tópico de TXA na hemiartroplastia do quadril para fraturas no pescoço femoral. O presente estudo teve como objetivo avaliar os efeitos do TXA tópico na perda de sangue e transfusões de sangue em pacientes com fratura femoral que foram submetidos a hemiartroplastia bipolar cimentada. Métodos Vinte e seis pacientes com fraturas no pescoço femoral e programados para artroplastia cimentada bipolar foram randomizados em dois grupos. O primeiro grupo de 12 pacientes recebeu TXA tópico durante a operação; no segundo grupo, 14 pacientes receberam placebo. O hematócrito foi medido às 6 e 24 horas no pósoperatório. Também foram registradas transfusões de sangue e complicações pósoperatórias. Resultados A perda total de sangue não foi diferente entre o grupo TXA e o grupo controle (grupo TXA: 459,48 ±456,32 ml; e grupo controle: 732,98 ±474,02 ml; p = 0,14). No entanto, não houve pacientes dentro do grupo TXA que necessitaram de transfusão de sangue, enquanto 4 pacientes no grupo controle fizeram transfusões de sangue halogênicas (p = 0,044). Não houve complicações pós-operatórias, tais como complicação da ferida, tromboembolismo venoso ou complicações cardiovasculares dentro de qualquer grupo. Conclusão O TXA tópico não conseguiu diminuir a perda total de sangue, mas foi capaz de reduzir as taxas de transfusão, em pacientes submetidos a hemiartroplastia de quadril bipolar cimentada em fraturas no pescoço femoral. Outros estudos com doses de TXA tópico em um tamanho amostral maior seriam benéficos. Nível de Evidência II.

ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVE@#To compare and analyze the early clinical effect of direct superior approach(DSA) and posterior lateral approach (PLA) in hemiarthroplasty for elderly patients with femoral neck fracture.@*METHODS@#The clinical data of 72 elderly patients with femoral neck fracture who underwent hemiarthroplasty from January 2020 to December 2021 were retrospectively analyzed. Among them, 36 patients were operated through minimally invasive DSA including 10 males and 26 females with an average age of (82.82±4.05) years old; the other 36 patients underwent traditional PLA including 14 males and 22 females with an average age of (82.79±3.21) years old. The perioperative related indexes and Harris scores during follow-up between two groups were compared.@*RESULTS@#Comparison of operation time between two groups, (79.41±17.39) min of DSA group was shorter than(98.45±26.58) min of PLA group;incision length (8.33±2.69) cm was shorter than (11.18±1.33) cm of PLA group;intraoperative blood loss (138.46±71.58) ml was less than (173.51±87.17) ml of PLA group, initial landing time (3.04±0.95) d was earlier than (4.52±1.10) d of PLA group, hospitalization time (8.70±1.89) d was shorter than (10.67±2.35) d of PLA group(P<0.05). There was no statistical difference in Harris score between two groups before operation(P>0.05), but Harris score in DSA group was higher than that of PLA group at 1 month after operation(P<0.05), but at 12 months after operation, the difference was not statistically significant between two groups(P>0.05).@*CONCLUSION@#Compared with PLA, DSA is superior in clinical indexes such as operation time, intraoperative blood loss, incision length, first landing time, length of hospitalization and Harris score in the first month after operation in hemi hip replacement, and has comparative advantages in promoting early postoperative rehabilitation of elderly patients with femoral neck.

ABSTRACT

There are still many unresolved problems in the treatment and prognosis of nondisplaced femoral neck fractures, such as nonunion and avascular necrosis of the caput femoris .In order to reduce the risk of various complications after non-displaced femoral neck fractures, the caput femoris posterior tilt of femoral neck fractures and its impact on prognosis have attracted more and more attention. A large number of scholars' studies have found that when the posterior tilt exceeds 20°, the risk of internal fixation failure increases significantly. Based on this concept, we can choose to use primary artificial joint replacement instead of three-screw internal fixation according to the different posterior tilt angles of patients to reduce the incidence of postoperative complications. At the same time, our analysis found that comminution of the posterior segment of the femoral neck would lead to an increase in the posterior inclination angles. The purpose of this review was to investigate the relationship between caput femoris posterior tilt of femoral neck fractures and surgical outcome, and to introduce a new method for measuring caput femoris posterior tilt of the femoral neck.

ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVE@#To investigate the early effectiveness of the Ti-Robot assisted femoral neck system (FNS) in the treatment of elderly Garden type Ⅱ and Ⅲ femoral neck fractures.@*METHODS@#A retrospective analysis was conducted on the clinical data of 41 elderly patients with Garden type Ⅱ and Ⅲ femoral neck fractures who were admitted between December 2019 and August 2022 and met the selection criteria. Among them, 21 cases were treated with Ti-Robot assisted FNS internal fixation (study group), and 20 cases were treated solely with FNS internal fixation (control group). There was no significant difference in baseline data, including gender, age, side, cause of injury, time from injury to surgery, fracture Garden classification, and fracture line classification, between the two groups ( P>0.05). Surgical effectiveness was evaluated based on parameters such as operation time (including incision time and total operation time), reduction level, number of dominant pin insertions, intraoperative fluoroscopy frequency, incision length, whether to extend the incision, need for assisted reduction, postoperative hospital stay, fracture healing time, incidence of osteonecrosis of the femoral head, postoperative visual analogue scale (VAS) score at 1 day, and Harris hip score at last follow-up.@*RESULTS@#The study group showed significantly shorter incision time, fewer dominant pin insertions, fewer instances of extended incisions, fewer intraoperative fluoroscopy frequency, and smaller incisions than the control group ( P<0.05). There was no significant difference in total operation time, reduction level, and assisted reduction frequency between the two groups ( P>0.05). Both groups achieved primary wound healing postoperatively, with no complications such as incision leakage or skin infection. All patients were followed up 12-24 months with an average of 14.6 months. Fractures healed in both groups, with no significant difference in healing time ( P>0.05). There was no significant difference in postoperative hospital stay between the two groups ( P>0.05). The study group showed significantly better VAS score at 1 day after operation and Harris hip score at last follow-up when compared to the control group ( P<0.05). No complication such as internal fixation failure, fracture displacement, or hip joint varus occurred in both groups during the follow-up. Osteonecrosis of the femoral head occurred in 1 patient of the control group, while no was observed in the study group, and the difference in the incidence of osteonecrosis of the femoral head between the two groups was not significant ( P=0.488).@*CONCLUSION@#Compared to sole FNS internal fixation treatment, Ti-Robot assisted FNS internal fixation for elderly Garden typeⅡ and Ⅲ femoral neck fractures can reduce incision time, achieve minimally invasive and accurate nail implantation, and decrease intraoperative fluoroscopy frequency, leading to improved postoperative hip joint function recovery.

ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVE@#To explore the related factors of femoral stem anteversion (FSA) after total hip arthroplasty (THA), so as to provide reference for clinical design of FSA before operation and reduce the risk of hip dislocation after arthroplasty.@*METHODS@#Ninty-three patients (103 hips) who underwent THA between October 2021 and September 2022 and met the selection criteria were selected as the study subjects. Among them, there were 48 males and 45 females with an average age of 58.5 years (range, 25-88 years). Body mass index was 18.00-37.84 kg/m 2, with an average of 24.92 kg/m 2. There were 51 cases (57 hips) of osteonecrosis of femoral head, 35 cases (39 hips) of hip osteoarthritis, and 7 cases (7 hips) of congenital hip dysplasia. Based on CT images, the following indicators were measured: preoperative femoral neck anteversion (FNA), preoperative femoral rotation angle (FRA), preoperative acetabular anteversion (AA), and preoperative combined anteversion (CA; the sum of preoperative FNA and AA); postoperative FSA and the change in femoral anteversion angle (the difference between postoperative FSA and preoperative FNA). Based on preoperative X-ray films, the following indicators were measured: femoral cortical thickness index (CTI) and canal flare index (CFI), the proximal femoral medullary cavity was classified according to Noble classification (champagne cup type, normal type, chimney type), neck-shaft angle (NSA), and femoral offset (FO). Pearson correlation analysis, one-way ANOVA, and Point-biserial correlation analysis were used to investigate the correlation between postoperative FSA, postoperative change in femoral anteversion angle, and patient diagnosis, proximal femoral medullary cavity anatomy type, gender, age, as well as preoperative FNA, FRA, AA, CA, NSA, FO, CTI, and CFI. FSA was used as the dependent variable and the independent variables that may be related to it were included for multiple linear regression analysis.@*RESULTS@#Based on CT image measurement, preoperative FNA was (15.96±10.01)°, FRA (3.36±10.87)°, AA (12.94±8.83)°, CA (28.9±12.6)°, postoperative FSA (16.18±11.01)°, and postoperative change in femoral anteversion angle was (0.22±9.98)°. Based on preoperative X-ray films measurements, the CTI was 0.586±0.081; the CFI was 4.135±1.125, with 23 hips classified as champagne cup type, 68 hips as normal type, and 12 hips as chimney type in the proximal femoral medullary cavity anatomy; NSA was (132.87±7.83)°; FO was (40.53±10.11) mm. There was no significant difference between preoperative FNA and postoperative FSA ( t=-0.227, P=0.821). Pearson correlation analysis showed that postoperative FSA was positively correlated with preoperative FNA, preoperative CA, postoperative change in femoral anteversion angle, and age ( P<0.05), while negatively correlated with preoperative FRA ( P<0.05). The postoperative change in femoral anteversion angle were positively correlated with preoperative FRA and postoperative FSA ( P<0.05), and negatively correlated with preoperative CA and FNA ( P<0.05). One-way ANOVA analysis showed that the above two indicators were not correlated with diagnosis and the proximal femoral medullary cavity anatomy type ( P>0.05). Multiple linear regression analysis showed a linear correlation between FSA and FNA, CA, age, and FRA ( F=10.998, P<0.001), and the best fit model was FSA=0.48×FNA-2.551.@*CONCLUSION@#The factors related to FSA after THA include patient's age, preoperative FNA, CA, FRA and postoperative femoral anteversion, of which preoperative FNA is the most closely related. When designing a surgical plan before surgery, attention should be paid to the patient's preoperative FNA, and if necessary, CT around the hip joint should be scanned to gain a detailed understanding of the proximal femoral anatomical structure.

ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVE@#To explore effectiveness of positive support reduction and internal fixation in the treatment of femoral neck fractures.@*METHODS@#A clinical data of 74 patients with femoral neck fractures treated with hollow screw internal fixation between September 2017 and September 2021 was retrospectively analyzed. Based on the quality of fracture reduction, they were divided into positive support reduction group (group A, n=25), negative support reduction group (group B, n=21), and anatomical reduction group (group C, n=28). There was no significant difference in baseline data such as gender, age, cause of injury, disease duration, fracture side, Garden classification, and fracture line position classification between groups (P>0.05). The occurrence of complications such as early fixation failure, femoral neck shortening, non-union of fractures, and femoral head necrosis in three groups, as well as the Harris score of the hip joint were recorded and compared.@*RESULTS@#All patients had primary healing of incisions after operation and were followed up more than 12 months. The follow-up time for groups A, B, and C was (21.1±5.7), (22.6±4.3), and (21.9±4.1) months, respectively; there was no significant difference between groups (P>0.05). There was no significant difference in the incidences of non-union of fractures, early internal fixation failure, and the femoral head necrosis between groups (P>0.05). The incidence and length of femoral neck shortening, and the hip Harris score at last follow-up in groups A and C were all superior to those in the group B, with significant difference (P<0.05). There was no significant difference in the above indicators between groups A and C (P>0.05).@*CONCLUSION@#Positive support reduction can provide a good biomechanical environment for the healing of femoral neck fractures, thereby achieving a higher fracture healing rate, reducing the occurrence of femoral neck shortening, minimizing the function of hip joint, and achieving effectiveness similar to anatomical reduction.

ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVE@#To investigate the clinical efficacy of femoral neck system(FNS) and three cannulated compression screws(CCS) in the treatment of unstable femoral neck fractures in young adults.@*METHODS@#The clinical data of 52 young and middle-aged patients with unstable femoral neck fractures admitted from August 2018 to August 2021 were reviewed and analyzed. All patients were divided into two groups according to the internal fixation method, 25 cases were treated with FNS fixation, 27 cases were treated with closed reduction and 3 CCS inverted triangular distribution. The operation time, incision length, intraoperative bleeding, hospitalization expenses and fracture reduction quality of two groups were recorded and compared;The patients were followed up regularly after operation. The fracture healing time, complete weight-bearing time and postoperative complications(nonunion, femoral neck shortening, femoral head necrosis) of two groups were compared. The Harris score was used to evaluate hip function 6 months after surgery.@*RESULTS@#The operation was successfully completed in both groups. The patients in FNS group had more bleeding, longer incision length and higher hospitalization cost than CCS group(P<0.01). There ware no significant difference in operation time and Garden index between two groups(P>0.05). Patients in both groups were followed up for 6 to 32 months.The fracture healing time in FNS group was less than that in CCS group, the time of complete weight bearing after surgery was earlier than that in CCS group, and the hip Harris score was higher than that in CCS group (P<0.01). There were no internal fixation fracture complications in two groups during follow-up. In the FNS group, there were 4 cases of avascular necrosis of the femoral head and 2 cases of femoral neck shortening, of which 3 cases underwent total hip replacement due to avascular necrosis of the femoral head. In the CCS group, there were 2 cases of nonunion, 9 cases of avascular necrosis of the femoral head, and 11 cases of femoral neck shortening, among which 5 cases underwent total hip replacement due to nonunion and avascular necrosis of the femoral head.@*CONCLUSION@#With simple operation, rotational stability and angular stability, FNS enables patients to start functional exercise as early as possible and reduces the incidence of postoperative complications of unstable femoral neck fracture. It is a new choice for the treatment of unstable femoral neck fracture in young adults.

ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVE@#To investigate the effectiveness of joystick technique assisted closed reduction and cannulated screw fixation in the treatment of femoral neck fracture.@*METHODS@#Seventy-four patients with fresh femoral neck fractures who met the selection criteria between April 2017 and December 2018 were selected and divided into observation group (36 cases with closed reduction assisted by joystick technique) and control group (38 cases with closed manual reduction). There was no significant difference in gender, age, fracture side, cause of injury, Garden classification, Pauwels classification, time from injury to operation, and complications (except for hypertension) between the two groups ( P>0.05). The operation time, intraoperative infusion volume, complications, and femoral neck shortening were recorded and compared between the two groups. Garden reduction index was used to evaluate the effect of fracture reduction, and score of fracture reduction (SFR) was designed and was used to evaluate the subtle reduction effect of joystick technique.@*RESULTS@#The operation was successfully completed in both groups. There was no significant difference in operation time and intraoperative infusion volume between the two groups ( P>0.05). All patients were followed up 17-38 months, with an average of 27.7 months. Two patients in the observation group received joint replacement due to failure of internal fixation during the follow-up, and the other patients had fracture healing. Within 1 week after operation, the Garden reduxtion index of the observation group was better than the control group; the SFR score of the observation group was also higher than that of the control group; the proportion of femoral neck shortening within 1 week after operation and at 1 year after operation in the observation group were lower than those in the control group. The differences of the above indexes between the two groups were significant ( P<0.05).@*CONCLUSION@#The joystick technique can improve the effectiveness of closed reduction of femoral neck fractures and reduce the incidence of femoral neck shortening. The designed SFR score can directly and objectively evaluate the reduction effect of femoral neck fracture.

ABSTRACT

Objective:To investigate the clinical efficacy of the femoral neck system (FNS) after the reduction of the Schanz screw combined with the rod stick technique in the treatment of valgus-impacted femoral neck fracture.Methods:A retrospective analysis of clinical data from 66 patients with valgus-impacted femoral neck fractures from December 2019 to November 2021 has been performed. All patients were treated with the Femoral Neck System. Auxiliary reduction group (using the Schanz screw and rod stick technique), including 32 cases, 9 males and 23 females with an average age of 52.7±12.0 years (range, 28-77 years); 14 patients on the left side and 18 patients on the right side; body mass index 23.1±2.6 kg/m 2. Manual reduction group (using the traditional Flynn closed reduction technique), including 34 cases, 18 males and 16 females with an average age of 52.1±12.7 years (range, 26-75 years); 18 patients on the left side and 16 patients on the right side; body mass index 23.4±2.3 kg/m 2. The surgery time, intraoperative blood loss, complications, and Harris hip score at the last follow-up were collected and compared between the two groups. Preoperative and postoperative abduction angle and posterior tilt angle were measured in the anterior-posterior and lateral positions of the hip, as well as the length of the femoral neck shortening at the last follow-up. Pearson analysis was used to evaluate the correlation between preoperative and postoperative abduction angle and posterior tilt angle, the length of femoral neck shortening, and Harris hip score. Results:There were no significant differences in baseline data such as gender, age, side of injury, height, weight, and body mass index, and the surgery time and intraoperative blood loss between auxiliary reduction group and manual reduction group ( P>0.05). All 66 cases with a mean follow-up of 20.4 months (ranges 12-29 mouths). The fracture healing time was 5.0±0.9 weeks in the auxiliary reduction group and 4.9±0.8 weeks in the manual reduction group ( t=-0.41, P>0.05). There were no significant statistical difference in the preoperative abduction angle and preoperative posterior tilt angle between the auxiliary reduction group and the manual reduction group ( P>0.05). The postoperative abduction angle and posterior tilt angle of the auxiliary reduction group (1.8°±3.1°, 1.2°±3.0°) were significantly lower than those of the manual reduction group (13.7°±6.5°, 6.8°±4.1°, t=-9.55, P<0.001; t=-7.42, P<0.001). Preoperatively, 61 cases (92%) were associated with a posterior tilt of the femoral head, and 30 (46%) of them had a posterior tilt angle of more than 10°. The length of femoral neck shortening at the last follow-up and the moderate and severe femoral neck shortening rate postoperatively in the auxiliary reduction group (1.4±2.1 mm, 0, and 3%) were significantly lower than those in the manual reduction group (8.1±4.8 mm, 38%, and 32%, P<0.05). Harris hip score at the last follow-up in the auxiliary reduction group 91.1±4.5 was significantly higher than those in the manual reduction group 85.5±5.4 ( t=4.54, P<0.001). The postoperative abduction angle and length of femoral neck shortening showed correlations with the Harris hip score respectively ( r=-0.551, -0.743; P<0.001). In the auxiliary reduction group, 1 case of broken temporary fixed Kirschner wire was removed by nucleus pulposus forceps, and the fracture site healed after surgery. In 2 cases, the Schanz screw loosened and pulled out during the reduction process, and the successful reduction was achieved after increasing the depth of the Schanz screw insertion, and no peri-Schanz screw fracture occurred. After surgery, 3 cases (1 case in the auxiliary reduction group and 2 cases in the manual reduction group) developed avascular necrosis of the femoral head (18 months, 18 months, and 2 years after surgery, respectively), femoral head collapse and severe shortening of the femoral neck, all of which underwent total hip arthroplasty. Conclusion:FNS after the reduction of the Schanz screw combined with the rod stick technique in the treatment of valgus-impacted femoral neck fracture has the advantages of effectively correcting preoperative abduction angle and posterior tilt angle and reducing the length of femoral neck shortening, and it can obtain satisfactory short and medium-term clinical efficacy.

ABSTRACT

Objective:To investigate the early clinical outcomes of a minimally invasive anterolateral approach (Orthopadische chirurgie munchen, OCM) versus a conventional (posterolateral approach, PLA) hemiarthroplasty in the treatment of senior femoral neck fractures.Methods:A retrospective analysis was performed on 90 elderly patients with femoral neck fractures who received anterolateral and posterolateral approaches for hemiarthroplasty in the Second Affiliated Hospital of Soochow University from December 2019 to June 2021 and were followed up. In the OCM group, there were 45 cases, including 18 males and 27 females, aged 83.33±5.29 years (range, 76-96 years); In the PLA group, there were 45 cases, including 13 males and 32 females, aged 81.87±5.00 years (range, 75-94 years). Postoperative, surgical indices, perioperative bleeding, and soft tissue injury were assessed; pain was assessed using the visual analogue scale (VAS), and hip function was evaluated using the Harris score and the University of California at Los Angeles (UCLA) score.Results:The incision length, postoperative hospital stay, hemoglobin reduction, and occult blood loss were lower in the OCM group than in the PLA group ( P<0.05), but there was no significant difference in intraoperative bleeding and postoperative transfusion rate ( P>0.05). Serum creatine kinase and C-reactive protein levels (232.98±83.70 IU/L and 81.67±48.85 mg/L) were lower in the OCM group than in the PLA group (296.93±124.58 IU/L and 104.79±36.75 mg/L) 1 day after surgery, and the differences were statistically significant ( t=2.86, P=0.005; t=2.54, P=0.013). Postoperative pain was significantly improved in all patients, and VAS scores were lower in the OCM group than in the PLA group at 12 h, 24 h, and 48 h postoperatively ( P<0.05). The time to get out of bed after surgery was 20.73±4.99 h in the OCM group compared with 41.69±13.58 h in the PLA group, with a statistically significant difference ( t=9.71, P<0.001). Harris scores (63.31±6.21 and 75.76±4.91) and UCLA scores (1.84±0.42 and 3.69±0.76) were higher in the OCM group on the day of discharge and at 1 month postoperatively than in the PLA group (52.69±10.01 and 71.33±3.66); (1.62±0.54 and 3.16±0.80) points, all with statistically significant differences ( P<0.05). However, the differences in Harris score and UCLA score between the two groups at 6 months postoperatively were not statistically significant ( P>0.05). There were two cases of intermuscular vein thrombosis in the OCM group, with a complication rate of 4% (2/45), and one case of dislocation in the PLA group, with a complication rate of 2% (1/45), there was no significant difference between the two groups ( P=1.000). Conclusion:The minimally invasive anterolateral approach is a more ideal procedure for elderly patients with femoral neck fractures undergoing hemiarthroplasty. It has the advantages of a short incision, small soft tissue damage, low occult blood loss, early removal from bed, a short postoperative hospital stay, an improvement in pain, and a good early recovery of hip function.

ABSTRACT

Compared with the pediatric femoral neck fracture described by the Delbet-Colonna classification, femoral neck fracture with a comminuted posteromedial column is characterized by a more special fracture location. Therefore, it is more difficult to deal with, leading to higher incidences of avascular necrosis of femoral head, coxa vara deformity, and delayed union postoperatively. This paper reviews recent progress in diagnosis and treatment of this specific kind of fracture in the aspects of anatomy and function of the posteromedial column of the femoral neck, and special features, surgical treatment and complication avoidance concerning this fracture, hoping to arouse interest from pediatric surgeons in this specific fracture which has not been described by the Delbet-Colonna classification.

ABSTRACT

Objective:To explore intraoperative assessment of blood supply to the femoral head after femoral neck fracture, and the correlation between the blood supply and postoperative osteonecrosis of the femoral head.Methods:A retrospective analysis was performed of the 63 patients with femoral neck fracture who had been treated at Department of Orthopaedic Trauma and Microsurgery, Zhongnan Hospital of Wuhan University by open reduction and internal fixation with hollow compression screws from April 2016 to March 2021. They were 39 males and 24 females with an age of (44.9±13.6) years. There were 42 cases of Garden type Ⅲ and 21 cases of Garden type Ⅳ. Time from injury to operation was (4.1±2.4) days. After internal fixation, a hole was drilled using a 2.0 mm Kirschner wire at 2.0 cm above the femoral head-neck junction to observe the velocity, color, and characteristics of the blood oozing at the drill hole. The patients were divided into a good oozing group of 51 cases in whom bright red blood oozing was observed within 15 seconds after drilling and a poor oozing group of 12 cases in whom dark red blood oozing was observed beyond 15 seconds after drilling. The incidence of postoperative femoral head necrosis, Harris hip score, and visual analogue scale (VAS) for pain were compared between the 2 groups. Single factor and multi factor analyses were conducted using the Cox regression model to analyze the factors influencing postoperative femoral head necrosis in the patients.Results:The 63 patients were followed up for 24 (18, 36) months. The 2 groups were comparable because there was no significant difference in the preoperative general data between them ( P>0.05). Femoral head necrosis was observed in 3 cases in the good oozing group and in 5 cases in the poor oozing group, showing a significant difference between the 2 groups ( P<0.05). The Harris hip score [90.0 (86.0, 92.0)] and the VAS pain score [1.0 (1.0, 2.0)] at 1 year after surgery in the good oozing group were significantly better than those in the poor oozing group [85.5 (71.3, 88.8) and 2.5 (1.0, 3.8)] ( P<0.05). Multivariate Cox regression analysis showed that Garden type Ⅳ ( HR=6.784, 95% CI: 1.324 to 35.664, P=0.023) and intraoperative poor blood oozing ( HR=10.744, 95% CI: 2.359 to 51.774, P=0.003) were risk factors for femoral head necrosis after cannulated compression screw fixation of fractures of displaced femoral neck ( P<0.05). Conclusions:The blood supply to the femoral head after femoral neck fracture can be directly assessed by drilling a hole in the femoral head after open reduction and internal fixation. Intraoperative poor blood oozing is a risk factor for the femoral head necrosis after cannulated compression screw fixation of fractures of displaced femoral neck.

ABSTRACT

Objective:To compare the efficacy of femoral neck system (FNS) and cannulated compression screw (CCS) 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 91 patients with femoral neck fracture admitted to Fuzhou Second Hospital from July 2020 to December 2021, including 52 males and 39 females; aged 23-65 years [(48.9±10.3)years]. Garden classification of the fracture found that 31 patients were with type I, 9 with type II, 12 with type III and 39 with type IV. Pauwels classification of the fracture found that 7 patients were with type I, 33 with type II and 51 with type III. A total of 53 patients were treated with FNS fixation (FNS group) and 38 patients with CCS fixation (CCS group). The operation time, intraoperative blood loss, Haidukewych fracture reduction quality, hospitalization time, Barthel index, fracture healing time, and weight-bearing time were compared between the two groups. The hip function was assessed by Harris hip score in both groups at postoperative 3 months, 6 months and 1 year and at the final follow-up. The incidences of postoperative complication and secondary surgery were also compared between the two groups.Results:All the patients were followed up for 15-31 months [(22.2±5.5)months]. There were no significant differences in the operation time, Haidukewych fracture reduction quality, hospitalization time, or Barthel index (all P>0.05). The intraoperative blood loss in the FNS group was 50.0(20.0,85.0)ml, which was more than that in the CCS group [20.0(10.0,50.0)ml] ( P<0.01). The fracture healing time, partial weight-bearing time, and full weight-bearing time in the FNS group [4.0(3.0,5.0)months, 3.0(2.0,3.0)months, 5.0(4.5,6.0)months] were shorter than those in the CCS group [6.0(5.0,7.0)months, 3.0(2.8,4.0)months, 6.0(6.0,7.0)months] (all P<0.01). The Harris hip score at postoperative 3 months, 6 months and 1 year and at the final follow-up were 74.0(71.0,77.0)points, 87.0(84.0,88.5)points, 91.0(88.0,95.0)points, and 94.0(91.0,96.0)points in the FNS group, significantly higher than those in the CCS group [73.0(70.0,74.0)points, 82.5(79.8,87.0)points, 88.0(83.5,91.0)points, 89.0(84.0,93.0)points] (all P<0.05 or 0.01). There were no statistically significant differences in the incidences of postoperative complication or secondary surgery between the two groups (all P>0.05). Conclusion:Compared with CCS, FNS can shorten fracture healing time, allow patients to carry full weight as soon as possible, and significantly improve hip function in the treatment of middle-aged and young adults with femoral neck fracture, although there is more intraoperative blood loss.

ABSTRACT

The stability of internal fixation of femoral neck fractures can be obtained through surgical techniques, the configuration of screws and bone grafting, etc. However, the blood supply injury caused by fractures could not be completely reversed by the current medical management. Hence, the comprehensive evaluation of the residual blood supply of the femoral neck, to perioperatively avoid further iatrogenic injury, has become a hotspot. The anatomy of the extraosseous blood supply of the femoral neck has been widely reported, while its clinical application mostly involved the assessment of the medial circumflex femoral artery and retinacular arteries. However, further studies are needed to explore the prognosis of patients with these artery injuries, with different degrees, caused by femoral neck fractures. Direct observations of nutrient foramina in vivo are not possible with current clinical technologies, but it is possible to make reasonable preoperative planning to avoid subsequent femoral head necrosis based on the distribution features of nutrient foramina. The anatomy and clinical application studies of the intraosseous blood supply focused on the junction area of the femoral head and neck to probe the mechanism of femoral head necrosis. Thus, the intraosseous blood supply of other regions in the femoral neck remains to be further investigated. In addition, a blood supply evaluation system based on a three-level structure, extraosseous blood vessels, nutrient foramina, and intraosseous vascular network, could be explored to assist in the treatment of femoral neck fractures.

ABSTRACT

For patients with femoral neck fractures who plan to undergo internal fixation, satisfied alignment of fracture ends is an important prerequisite for internal fixation stability and fracture healing. There are many reports on the reduction methods of displaced femoral neck fractures, which can be summarized into three categories:First, the solely longitudinal traction of lower limbs, supplemented by other manipulations such as rotation and compression; Second, the resultant force formed by the longitudinal traction of lower limbs and the lateral traction;the third is accomplished by vertical traction in the axis of femur with hip joint flexed. Each reduction method has its own advantages, but no single method can be applied to all fracture displacement. In this paper, some classical reduction techniques in the literatures are briefly reviewed. It is hoped that clinicians will not be limited to a certain reduction method, they should analyze the injury mechanism and fracture displacement process according to the morphology features and flexibly select targeted reduction methods to improve the success rate of closed reduction of femoral neck fracture.

ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVE@#To investigate the biomechanical characteristics of different internal fixations for Pauwels type Ⅲ femoral neck fracture with defect, and provide reference for the treatment of femoral neck fracture.@*METHODS@#Three-dimensional (3D) finite element models of femoral neck fractures were established based on CT images, including fracture and fracture with defects. Four internal fixations were simulated, namely, inverted cannulated screw(ICS), ICS combined with medial buttress plate, the femoral neck system (FNS) and FNS combined with medial buttress plate. The von Mises stress, model stiffness and fracture displacements of fracture models under 2 100 N axial loads were measured and compared.@*RESULTS@#When femoral neck fracture was fixed by ICS and FNS, the peak stress was mainly concentrated on the surface of the screw near the fracture line, and the peak stress of FNS is higher than that of ICS;When the medial buttress plate was combined, the peak stress was increased and transferred to medial buttress plate, with more obvious of ICS fixation. For the same fracture model, the stiffness of FNS was higher than that of ICS. Compared with femoral neck fracture with defects, fracture model showed higher stiffness in the same internal fixation. The use of medial buttress plate increased model stiffness, but ICS increased more than FNS. The fracture displacement of ICS model exceeded that of FNS.@*CONCLUSION@#For Pauwels type Ⅲ femoral neck fracture with defects, FNS had better biomechanical properties than ICS. ICS combined with medial buttress plate can better enhance fixation stability and non-locking plate is recommended. FNS had the capability of shear resistance and needn't combine with medial buttress plate.

ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVE@#To investigate the biomechanical characteristics of retinaculum in the treatment of femoral neck fractures.@*METHODS@#The CT data of a 75-year-old female volunteer was processed by software to construct an intact femur model and femoral neck fracture model fixed with three cannulated screws, which were divided into models with retinaculum or not. The Von-Mises stress distribution and displacement were compared to analyze the stability differences between the different models to study the mechanical characteristics of the retinaculum in the treatment of femoral neck fractures.@*RESULTS@#In the intact femur, the most obvious displacement appeared in the weight-bearing area of the femoral head, with retinaculum 0.381 37 mm, and without retinaculum 0.381 68 mm. The most concentrated part of the Von-Mises stress distribution was located in the medial and inferior part of the femoral neck, with retinaculum 11.80 MPa, without retinaculum 11.91 MPa. In the femoral neck fracture fixed with three cannulated screws model, the most obvious position of displacement also appeared in the weight-bearing area of the femoral head, with retinaculum 0.457 27 mm, without retinaculum 0.458 63 mm. The most concentrated part of the Von-Mises located at the medical and inferior part of the femoral neck, with retinaculum 59.22 MPa, without retinaculum 59.14 MPa. For the cannulated screws, the Von-Mises force peaks all appeared in the posterior and superior screw, with retinaculum 107.48 MPa, without retinaculum 110.84 MPa. Among the three screws, the Von-Mises stress of the anterior-superior screw was the smallest, which was 67.88 MPa vs 68.76 MPa in the retinaculum and non-retinaculum groups, respectively.@*CONCLUSION@#The complete retinaculum has little effect on the stability of intact femur and femoral neck fractures with anatomical reduction after internal fixation, and cannot effectively improve the stability of the fracture end after the fracture.

ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVE@#To analyze and compare the clinical efficacy of internal fixation and total hip replacement in the treatment of displaced femoral neck fracture from 55 to 65 years.@*METHODS@#From September 2016 to August 2020, 86 patients with Garden type Ⅲ or Ⅳ femoral neck fracture were divided into two groups according to different surgical methods. Among them, 38 patients were treated with lag screws for internal fixation, there were 26 males and 12 females, aged 55 to 64 years old with an average of(60.2±3.1) years;the other 48 patients were treated with total hip replacement, including 28 males and 20 females, aged from 57 to 65 years old with an average of(61.3±3.8) years. The time from injury to operation ranged from 1 to 3 days. The reoperation rate, incidence of deep infection, Harris score of hip joint function, visual analogue scale(VAS) of pain and patients reported outcome scores(European five-dimensional Health Questionnaire, EQ-5D) were compared between two groups.@*RESULTS@#All patients were followed up for 24 to 54 months with an average of (35.8±10.3) months. There was significant difference in reoperation rate between two groups (P<0.05). There was no significant difference on the incidence of deep infection, hip Harris score and VAS between two groups(P>0.05) . The postoperative EQ-5D score of patients with internal fixation was lower than that of total hip replacement, and the difference was statistically significant(P<0.05).@*CONCLUSION@#Both the surgery of internal fixation and total hip replacement have similar effect in short-and medium term among the patients aged 55 to 65 years old. However, for the reoperation rate, the group of internal fixation was higher than that of total hip replacement. For the subjective functional score of patients, the group of internal fixation was lower than that of total hip replacement.

ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVE@#To compare the efficacy of percutaneous compression plate and cannulated compression screw in the treatment of displaced femoral neck fractures in young and middle-aged patients.@*METHODS@#From January 2015 to July 2020, 68 young and middle-aged patients with displaced femoral neck fracture were retrospectively analyzed. Among them, 31 cases were fixed by percutaneous compression plate (PCCP), and 37 cases were fixed by cannulated compression screw (CCS). General data such as gender, age, cause of injury, comorbidities, fracture classification and cause of injury of two groups were collected. The operation time, intraoperative blood loss, hospital stay, full weight bearing time, fracture healing time, visual analogue scale(VAS), Harris hip score and complications were compared between two groups.@*RESULTS@#Patients in both groups were followed up for more than 2 years. There were no significant differences in operation time, intraoperative blood loss, fracture reduction quality, hospital stay and VAS between two groups. The fracture healing time in PCCP group was significantly shorter than that in CCS group (t=-4.404, P=0.000). The complete weight bearing time of PCCP group was significantly shorter than that of CCS group (t=-9.011, P=0.000). Harris score of hip joint in PCCP group was better than that in CCS group 2 years after operation (P=0.002). Complications occurred in 3 cases (9.68%) in PCCP group, while 11 cases (29.72%) in CCS group, with a statistically significant difference (P=0.042).@*CONCLUSION@#Both PCCP and CCS can be used for the treatment of displaced femoral neck fractures in young and middle-aged people. Compared with CCS, PCCP fixation can achieve shorter fracture healing time and create conditions for early full weight bearing. PCCP results in higher hip score and lower complications.

ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVE@#To investigate the clinical efficacy and advantages of Tianji orthopedic robot assisted cannulated screw internal fixation for femoral neck fracture.@*METHODS@#The clinical data of 41 patients with femoral neck fracture who underwent internal fixation with cannulated screws from January 2019 to January 2022 were retrospectively analyzed. According to different surgical methods, they were divided into Tianji robot group and traditional cannulated screw fixation group (traditional operation group). Among them, there were 18 patients in Tianji robot group including 8 males and 10 females with age of (56.00±4.22) years old, Garden typeⅠ (4 cases), type Ⅱ (11 cases), type Ⅲ (2 cases), and type Ⅳ (1 case). There were 23 patients in the traditional operation group, including 10 males and 13 females, aged (54.87±4.81) years old;there were 5 cases of Garden typeⅠ, 14 cases of type Ⅱ, 3 cases of type Ⅲ and 1 case of type Ⅳ. The operation time, intraoperative blood loss, fluoroscopy times, guide needle placement times, operation costs and other indicators were observed and compared between two groups. Harris score was used to evaluate hip joint function 12 months after operation.@*RESULTS@#The wounds of all patients healed in Grade A without complications. There were significant differences between two groups in terms of operation time, times of intraoperative fluoroscopy, times of guide needle placement, amount of intraoperative bleeding, and operation cost (P<0.05). All 41 patients were followed up for at least 12 months. The fractures of both groups were healed. There was no infection, screw loosening, fracture displacement and femoral head necrosis in Tianji robot group during follow-up;Screw loosening occurred in 2 patients in the traditional operation group during follow-up. At 12 months after operation, Harris hip joint function score of Tianji robot group was higher than that of traditional operation group in daily activity, lameness, joint activity score and total score (P<0.05).@*CONCLUSION@#Tianji robot assisted nail placement is a better method for the treatment of femoral neck fracture, which improves the surgical efficiency, is more accurate, has higher success rate of one-time nail placement, shorter operation time, less radiation, and has better hip joint function recovery after surgery.
