The femur, or thigh bone, is the only bone in the thigh and is the longest bone in the body. It acts as the site of origin and attachment for many muscles and ligaments, and the head forms a ball and socket joint with the hip.
The femoral neck connects the femoral shaft with the femoral head. Femoral neck fractures are a type of intracapsular hip fracture – the junctional location makes the neck prone to fracture.
The Femoral Neck System (FNS) addresses clinical challenges associated with the fixation of femoral neck fractures.
Authored by a team of highly experienced trauma surgeons and orthopaedic specialists, this book provides a comprehensive overview of the FNS, detailing its design, biomechanical principles, clinical applications, and rehabilitation protocols.
The book begins with a detailed examination of femoral neck fractures, including definitions, classifications, epidemiology, and incidence rates, as well as comparative analysis of various fixation methods.
The next chapter covers design and components of implants, including screws, plates, and locking mechanisms.
The following sections provide step-by-step surgical procedures for femoral neck fracture fixation, explaining positioning, intraoperative considerations, tips for optimal implant placement, and postoperative care and rehabilitation.
The book concludes with discussion on common complications and their management, clinical outcomes and studies, and future perspectives and innovations.
Compiling the latest data, research and expert opinions, chapters feature anecdotal notes for the fixation system, pearls, charts, figures, and diagrams, to provide an invaluable resource for specialists involved in the management of femoral neck fractures.
