Comparative study of Pauwels type III femoral neck fractures managed by short dynamic hip screw with fibula bone graft or cannulated screws in young adults.

ABSTRACT:

Background

The aim of our study was to compare the clinical effect of short dynamic hip screw (DHS) combined with fibula bone graft and short DHS combined with cannulated screws (CS) on the treatment of femoral neck fracture in young adults.

Methods

Thirty-five Pauwels type III femoral neck fracture patients between January 2014 and May 2019 were divided into two groups: group A (patients treated with DHS combined with fibula bone graft) and group B (patient treated with DHS combined with CS). The operative time, intraoperative blood loss, fracture healing time and complication of two groups were recorded.

Results

There were no significant differences in operative time, intraoperative blood loss in two groups. Fracture healing time in group A (5.28±1.07) was significa
