ABSTRACT
We analysed forty-six cases of femoral neck fracture treated with internal fixation and followed for more than one year at Korea University Hospital from January 1979 to June 1986 and the following results were obtained. 1. Sex distribution was 23 cases(50%) male and 23 cases(50%) female, and average age was sixty years old (range from 21 to 91 years). 2. The most common cause of injury was slip down(76%). 3. The most common type of fracture was Garden's type III(46%) and Pauwels' type III (67%). 4. In cases of internal fixation, the most commonly used method was closed reduction and multiple pinning under the local aneshtesia(83%). 5. Bony union was established within 5.9 months in average. 6. Among forty six cases, 7 cases(15%) of avascular necrosis, 4 cases(9%) of malunion, and 2 cases(4%) of nonunion was occurred. 7. The clinical results were excellent in twenty cases(43%), good in sixteen cases(35%), fair in seven cases(15%), and poor in three cases(7%) according to Lunceford's assessment.
