Treatment of fracture of femoral head


Passionate about making a difference.
Femoral head fracture is mostly due to high violence injury caused by hip swelling, pain, after X-ray or hip CT can be found in the femoral head fracture line, fracture broken end. Normal is to show displacement, but also in hip dislocation, due to acetabular compression caused by femoral head fracture. At this stage, showing femoral head fracture, first, to hip reduction. Secondly, if there is no obvious displacement can be used non-surgical treatment, generally using traction treatment of the affected limb, the traditional method can be used femoral condyle traction, 4-6 weeks time to allow the femoral head to fully rest, and then there are conditions for healing. If there is a dislocation, or open reduction and internal fixation method. If the displacement of the femoral head fracture is obvious, more open reduction and internal fixation surgery to restore the femoral head anatomy. For patients with severe comminuted fracture of femoral head, poor reduction and fixation effect, and high risk of head necrosis, one-stage artificial femoral head replacement or total hip replacement surgery can also be adopted.
