A novel no hip extension method during bipolar hip hemiarthroplasty using direct anterior approach for treatment of geriatric displaced femoral neck fracture.

ABSTRACT:

Background

The optimal approach to treat geriatric displaced femoral neck fracture (DFNF) during bipolar hip hemiarthroplasty (BHH) is still unclear. A novel technique of no hip extension during total hip arthroplasty using direct anterior approach (DAA) has been used recently. This study aimed to evaluate the clinical and radiographic outcomes of BHH through DAA using a novel no hip extension for DFNF.

Methods

A total of 66 patients of cement BHH between October 2019 to December 2022 using no hip extension method during BHH through DAA for treatment of DFNF were reviewed. The patients who underwent BHH using DAA with no hip extension comprising the DAA group were matched 1:2 with patients who underwent BHH using direct lateral approach (DLA) comprising the DLA group.
