Abstract
Twenty-seven patients with displaced femoral neck fractures were treated either by internal fixation (IF) with hook-pin or hemiarthroplasty (HA).<BR>Thirteen patients (mean age: 69 years) were treated with IF, and fourteen patients (mean age: 80 years) were treated with HA. Hip complications were six cases in the IF group and zero in the HA group. But three cases in the HA group had general complications and three patients in the IF group were required re-operations. In our opinion, hip complications in the IF group do not necessarily require additional surgery, so internal fixation should be considered as the treatment of choice in patients with displaced femoral neck fractures according to their conditions.
