Introduction Epidemiology increasingly common due to aging population women > men whites > blacks United states has highest incidence of hip fx rates worldwide most expensive fracture to treat on per-person basis Mechanism high energy in young patients low energy falls in older patients Pathophysiology healing potential femoral neck is intracapsular, bathed in synovial fluid lacks periosteal layer callus formation limited, which affects healing Associated injuries femoral shaft fractures 6-9% associated with femoral neck fractures treat femoral neck first followed by shaft Prognosis mortality ~25-30% at one year (higher than vertebral compression fractures) predictors of mortality pre-injury mobility is the most significant determinant for post-operative survival in patients with chronic renal failure, rates of mortality at 2 years postoperatively, are close to 45% Anatomy Osteology normal neck shaft-angle 130 +/- 7 degrees normal anteversion 10 +/- 7 degrees Blood supply to femoral head major contributor is medial femoral circumflex (lateral epiphyseal artery) some contribution to anterior and inferior head from lateral femoral circumflex some contribution from inferior gluteal artery small and insignificant supply from artery of ligamentum teres displacement of femoral neck fracture will disrupt the blood supply and cause an intracapsular hematoma (effect is controversial) Classification Garden Classification(based on AP radiographs and does not consider lateral or sagittal plane alignment) Type I Incomplete, ie. valgus impacted Type II Complete fx. nondisplaced Type III Complete, partially displaced Type IV Complete, fully displaced Posterior roll-off and/or angulation of femoral head leads to increased reoperation rates Simplified Garden Classification Nondisplaced Includes Garden I and II Displaced Includes Garden IIII and IV Pauwels Classification (based on vertical orientation of fracture line) Type I < 30 deg from horizontal Type II 30 to 50 deg from horizontal Type III > 50 deg from horizontal (most unstable with highest risk of nonunion and AVN) Presentation Symptoms impacted and stress fractures slight pain in the groin or pain referred along the medial side of the thigh and knee displaced fractures pain in the entire hip region Physical exam impacted and stress fractures no obvious clinical deformity minor discomfort with active or passive hip range of motion, muscle spasms at extremes of motion pain with percussion over greater trochanter displaced fractures leg in external rotation and abduction, with shortening Imaging Radiographs Recommended views AP traction-internal rotation AP hip is best for defining fracture type cross-table lateral full-length femur Optional views consider obtaining dedicated imaging of uninjured hip to use as template intraop CT helpful in determining displacement and degree of comminution in some patients MRI helpful to rule out occult fracture not helpful in reliably assessing viability of femoral head after fracture Bone scan helpful to rule out occult fracture not helpful in reliably assessing viability of femoral head after fracture Duplex Scanning indication rule out DVT if delayed presentation to hospital after hip fracture Treatment Nonoperative observation alone indications may be considered in some patients who are non-ambulators, have minimal pain, and who are at high risk for surgical intervention Operative ORIF indications displaced fractures in young or physiologically young patients ORIF indicated for most pts <65 years of age cannulated screw fixation indications nondisplaced transcervical fx Garden I or II in the physiologically elderly displaced transcervical fx in young patient considered a surgical emergency achieve reduction to limit vascular insult reduction must be anatomic, so open if necessary sliding hip screw indications basicervical fracture vertical fracture pattern in a young patient biomechanically superior to cannulated screws (may not be clinically superior) consider placement of additional cannulated screw above sliding hip screw to prevent rotation hemiarthroplasty indications controversial debilitated elderly patients metabolic bone disease total hip arthoplasty indications controversial older active patients patients with preexisting hip osteoarthritis more predictable pain relief and better functional outcome than hemiarthroplasty Garden III or IV in patient < 85 years Techniques General Surgical Consideration time to surgery controversial reduction method and quality has more pronounced effect on healing than surgical timing elderly patients with hip fractures should be brought to surgery as soon as medically optimal the benefits of early mobilization cannot be overemphasized improved outcomes in medically fit patients if surgically treated less than 4 days from injury treatment approach based on degree of displacement physiologic age of the patient (young is < than 50 ipsilateral femoral neck and shaft fractures priority goes to fixing femoral neck because anatomic reduction is necessary to avoid complications of AVN and nonunion fixation with implants that allow sliding permit dynamic compression at fx site during axial loading can cause shortening of femoral neck prominent implants affects biomechanics of hip joint lower physical function on SF-36 decreased quality of life anatomic reduction with intraop compression and placement of length stable devices decrease shortening open versus closed reduction worse outcomes with displacement > 5 mm (higher rate of osteonecrosis and nonunions) no consensus on which reduction approach is superior multiple closed reduction attempts are associated with higher risk of osteonecrosis of the femoral head ORIF approach

hematoma place A to P k-wires into femoral neck/head proximal to fracture to use as joysticks for reduction insert starting k-wire (for either cannulated screw or sliding hip screw) into appropriate position laterally, up to but not across the fracture once reduction obtained, drive starting k-wire across fracture insert second threaded tipped k-wire if adding additional fixation Cannulated Screw Fixation technique three screws if noncomminuted (3 screw inverted triangle shown to be superior to two screws) order of screw placement (this varies) 1-inferior screw along calcar 2-posterior/superior screw 3-anterior/superior screw obtain as much screw spread as possible in femoral neck inverted triangle along the calcar (not central in the neck) has stronger fixation and higher load to failure four screws considered for posterior comminution clear advantage of additional screws not proven in literature starting point at or above level of lesser trochanter to avoid fracture avoid multiple cortical perforations during guide pin or screw placement to avoid development of lateral stress riser Hemiarthroplasty approach posterior approach has increased risk of dislocations anterolateral approach has increased abductor weakness technique cemented superior to uncemented unipolar vs. bipolar Total Hip Replacement technique should consider using the anterolateral approach and selective use of larger heads in the setting of a femoral neck fracture advantages improved functional hip scores and lower re-operation rates compared to hemiarthroplasty complications higher rate of dislocation with THA (~ 10%) about five times higher than hemiarthroplasty Complications Osteonecrosis incidence of 10-45% recent studies fail to demonstrate association between time to fracture reduction and subsequent AVN increased risk with increase initial displacement AVN can still develop in nondisplaced injuries nonanatomical reduction treatment major symptoms not always present when AVN develops young patient > 50% involvement then treat with FVFG vs THA older patient prosthetic replacement (hemiarthroplasty vs THA) Nonunion incidence of 5 to 30% increased incidence in displaced fractures no correlation between age, gender, and rate of nonunion varus malreduction most closely correlates with failure of fixation after reduction and cannulated screw

patients or when the femoral head is not viable also an option in younger patient with a nonviable femoral head as opposed to FVFG revision ORIF Dislocation higher rate of dislocation with THA (~ 10%) about seven times higher than hemiarthroplasty Failure rates high early failure rates in fixation group, which stabilizes after 2 years 2-year follow-up (elderly population >70 years) with displaced femoral neck fractures 46% with fixation techniques 8% with arthroplasty techniques 2-to-10 year follow-up failure rate approx. 2-4%, respectively overall failure rates still higher in fixation vs. arthoplasty at 10-year follow-up sliding hip screw with lower reopeation rates compared to cannulated screws: displaced femoral neck fractures basicervical femoral neck fractures current smokers Reducing complications with co-management service orthopaedic geriatric co-management of trauma patients has been demonstrated to yield decreased mortality, post-operative complications, time to surgery, length of stay (though conflicting results on length of stay) improved post-operative mobility at 4 months
