Internal fixation of displaced femoral neck fractures is associated with a high risk for complications such as non-union or avascular necrosis. A stable fracture fixation can improve prognosis although stability is often counteracted by weak osteoporotic bone. The aim with this study was to evaluate whether augmentation with resorbable calcium-phosphate cement could improve fracture stability during the early period after surgery as shown in biomechanical studies.
