Popis: Objective: The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effect of pre-sliding of the femoral neck system (FNS) in the prevention of postoperative femoral neck shortening in femoral neck fractures. Method: This study was designed to retrospectively analyze data from 109 patients with femoral neck fractures who were admitted to a Level I trauma center between April 2020 and June 2022. Of these patients, 90 were followed up for more than 12 months. The study included 52 males and 38 females, with 35 cases of Garden I and II fractures and 55 cases of Garden III and IV fractures. The Harris Hip Score at 12 months postoperatively were recorded. The patients were divided into two groups based on their surgical records and postoperative radiography: the Pre-sliding group and the No-pre-sliding group. The purpose of this study is to analyze the role of pre-sliding in preventing femoral neck shortening, fracture healing time, degree of postoperative shortening, complications, and Harris Hip Score, and to make a comparison between the two groups. Results: All 90 patients were followed up for over one year after surgery. A statistically significant difference was observed in the preoperative Garden classification (P
