Abstrakt: | Objective: To evaluate the rate of deviation in the lateral radiographic incidence in patients with femoral neck fracture classified as non-diverted in the anteroposterior view (Garden I and II). Methods: Nineteen selected patients with femoral neck fractures classified as Garden I and II were retrospectively evaluated, estimating the degree of deviation in the lateral view. Results: Fifteen cases (79%) presented deviations in lateral view, with a mean of 18.6 degrees (±15.5). Conclusion: Most fractures of the femoral neck classified as Garden I and II present some degree of posterior deviation in the X-ray lateral view. Level of Evidence III, Retrospective Comparative Study. Competing Interests: All the authors declare that there is no potential conflict of interest referring to this article. |
