What is femoral neck fracture?


Guiding you with care, every step of the way.
The appropriate treatment for femoral neck fractures should be selected according to the specific situation, including assessment of the severity of the disease, the applicability of conservative treatment, the choice of surgical treatment, the importance of postoperative rehabilitation, long-term follow-up and monitoring, etc. 1. To assess the severity of the disease requires a comprehensive assessment of the patient's physical condition, fracture type and displacement. This is important in determining treatment options, as different situations may be appropriate for different treatments. For example, for mild fractures with no apparent displacement, conservative treatment may be an option, but for fractures with severe displacement, surgical intervention may be necessary.2. Applicability of conservative treatmentFor some patients who are in poor physical condition and cannot tolerate surgery, conservative treatment may be an option. 3. Surgical treatment options Surgical treatment usually includes internal fixation surgery and hip arthroplasty. Internal fixation surgery is suitable for relatively young patients with good bone quality. Fixation devices such as steel nails are inserted to promote fracture healing. Hip replacement is mostly used for elderly patients or severe fracture difficult to heal, can restore hip function as soon as possible. 4. The importance of postoperative rehabilitation No matter which treatment method is selected, postoperative rehabilitation is very critical. Including early limb activities, rehabilitation training, etc., to prevent muscle atrophy, joint stiffness and other complications, promote functional recovery. 5. Long-term follow-up and monitoring Patients need long-term follow-up and monitoring after treatment to find possible problems in time, such as fracture nonunion, femoral head necrosis, etc., and take corresponding treatment measures. In conclusion, the treatment of femoral neck fracture needs to consider a variety of factors, select the most suitable treatment plan for patients, and pay attention to postoperative rehabilitation and long-term follow-up, in order to improve the treatment effect and the quality of life of patients.
