Common deformities of femoral neck fracture

Femur neck fracture is a common deformity of the lower limb shortening, external rotation deformity.

1. Shortening of the lower

limb is due to the loss of normal continuity and support of the femur after femoral neck fracture, resulting in relative shortening of the affected lower limb. Factors such as displacement of the fracture end and traction of surrounding muscles are the main reasons for shortening

of the lower limb.
