pubmed:abstractText |
Twenty cases of neglected (more than 1 month old) displaced femoral neck fractures in young adults were treated with a valgus intertrochanteric osteotomy. A fracture union rate of 85% (17 cases) was achieved. Two of the healed cases developed avascular necrosis. After 30 months 15 patients (75%) had achieved good to excellent results. We believe that intertrochanteric osteotomy provides good alternative management for neglected femoral neck fractures.
