Popis: Abstract Background The optimal treatment method for managing unstable Pauwels III femoral neck fractures remains undetermined. The aim of this study was to compare the biomechanical properties of two types of Femoral Neck Anti-rotation and Support System (FNAS) and a Femoral Neck System (FNS) in unstable Pauwels III femoral neck fractures. Methods Eighteen synthetic femoral models were implanted with one of three fixation devices: FNS, FNAS I, or FNAS II. An unstable Pauwels III (OTA/AO 31-B2.3) femoral neck fracture was simulated using a custom-made needle and osteotomy guide. Torsion and axial compression loading tests were conducted, and the torque, torsion angle, load to failure, displacement, and stiffness values were recorded. Results FNAS II exhibited significantly higher torsional stiffness (0.67 ± 0.10 Nm/°) compared to FNAS I (0.52 ± 0.07 Nm/°, P = 0.01) and FNS (0.54 ± 0.07 Nm/°, P = 0.005). FNS demonstrated significantly greater mean axial stiffness (239.24 ± 11.38 N/mm) than both FNAS I (179.33 ± 31.11 N/mm, P = 0.005) and FNAS II (190.07 ± 34.11 N/mm, P = 0.022). FNAS I (302.37 ± 33.88 N/mm, P = 0.001) and FNAS II (319.59 ± 50.10 N/mm, P
