| Abstrakt: | Internal fixation of femoral neck fractures has been always debatable. Parallel screws though are a frequent modality of fixation, they have a poor outcome in 46% of cases clinically. The fixation failure can be reduced significantly by optimizing the primary stability of the internal fixation construct. We treated 12 patients who presented with fracture neck of the femur by biplane double support fixation (BDSF) technique. All patients achieved fracture union without any complications and were followed up for 12 months. The results with BDSF are far more successful than the conventional method of fixation. There were no instances of fixation failure in our series of 12 cases. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
