Functional and radiological outcome after delayed fixation of femoral neck fractures in pediatric patients
Journal of Orthopaedics and Traumatology, 11/24/09
Varshney MK et al. – Outcome following temporal delay in fracture fixation of the femoral neck is primarily affected by osteonecrosis of the femoral head, whereas restriction of movements, shortening, and premature physeal closure has no significant influence. Osteonecrosis is primarily linked to delay and open reduction, whereas fracture type, age, and sex seem insignificant factors. Capsular decompression does not seem to affect the outcome in delayed presentations and may hinder definitive treatment.
