Salvage of Failed Femoral Neck Fracture Fixation with Conversion Total Hip Arthroplasty Using the Direct Anterior Approach

摘要

Failed femoral neck fracture (FNF) fixation with in situ pinning presents a surgical challenge. Osteoporotic bone, retained hardware, and a typically elderly population magnify the risks of surgery. Here, outcomes of conversion total hip arthroplasty (THA) using two separate incisions in these high-risk patients were examined.
