[Surgical treatment of unstable femoral neck fractures]. 1983

G I Tateosov, and N V Michurin

Results of the treatment of 378 patients with unstable fracture of the femur neck were analyzed. The authors recommend to use osteosynthesis with a three-blade rod with an additional fixation by a lateral plank and screws to the femur diaphysis combined with osseous allotransplant introduced parallel to the metallic fixator. The follow-up studies for 6 years have shown the false joint to be formed in 5% of the patients operated by the proposed method while osteosynthesis by a three-blade rod only gave it in 23,8% of cases.
