Fracture classification and coronal plane position of bolt may affect the prognosis after femoral neck system (FNS) surgery for femoral neck fractures.

ABSTRACT:

Purpose

This study aims to investigate the risk factors for postoperative complications following Femoral Neck System (FNS) fixation in young patients with femoral neck fractures (FNFs).

Methods

We retrospective analyzed 133 patients with FNFs who underwent FNS fixation between May 2021 and October 2023. Potential risk factors that may affect the results included age, gender, body mass index (BMI), Pauwels classification, Garden classification, fracture anatomical classification, reduction method, reduction quality, coronal plane position of the FNS bolt. Postoperative complication data, including femoral head necrosis, nonunion, shortening of the femoral neck, fracture displacement, and screw cut-out, were collected. Multivariate logistic regression analysis was used to ana
