1 Ipsilateral Femoral Neck And Shaft Fractures Exchange Nailing For Non- Union Donald Wiss MD Cedars-Sinai Medical Center Los Angeles, California Introduction Uncommon Injury Invariably High Energy Trauma Typically In Young Male Patient Associated Injuries Common Requires Prompt Diagnosis & Rx Introduction Incidence 3% - 5% Difficult To Manage When Displaced Timing Of Treatment Controversial Complications High In Many Series 1

2 Mechanism Of Injury High Energy Trauma Longitudinal Force Flexed & Abducted Hip Flexed Knee Resultant Femoral Neck Fracture Basilar In Location Vertical In Orientation Displacement Variable Hard To Visualize Sub-Optimal X-Rays Missed Diagnosis Literature Up To 1/3 Femoral Neck Fractures Are Missed My Case 1982 When The Femoral Neck Fracture Is Missed Treatment Options Later Become More Limited And Difficult With Outcomes Worse Dedicated Hip X-Rays & CT Scans On Initial Trauma Work-Up Decrease Incidence Of Missed Fractures 2

3 Knee Injuries Knee Injuries In 25% - 50% Patella Fractures Femoral Condyles PCL Injuries Easily Missed Pre-Op Exam Difficult High Index Of Suspicion Late Morbidity Treatment Wide Consensus That Fractures Of The Hip Should Take Precedence Over The Femoral Shaft Fracture Consequences Of The Neck Fracture Avascular Necrosis Non-Union Varus Mal-Union All Challenging To Treat Arthroplasty Unattractive 3

4 Femoral Neck Fracture Non-Displaced Fxs In-Situ ORIF Displaced Fractures Direct Anterior Approach Antero-Lateral Approach Goal Is Anatomical Reduction Treatment Alternatives Reconstruction Nail Antegrade Nail & Nail Cannulated Screws & Retrograde Nail SHS And Retrograde Nail Femoral Neck Screws And Plate Treatment Alternatives Reconstruction Nail Antegrade Nail & Nail Large Screws & Retrograde Nail SHS And Retrograde Nail Femoral Neck Screws And Plate 4

Concurrent Ipsilateral Fractures Of The Hip & Femoral Shaft: A Meta-Analysis Of 659 Cases Acta Orthop Scand 67: 19-28, Studies 78% Motor Vehicle Accidents, Median Age 34 Yrs 1/3 rd Had Multiple Injuries ½ Had Ipsilateral Knee Injuries Femoral Neck Fracture Mostly Basilar In Location AVN Rate 3%, 99% Healed Locked Nails Gave Better Results Than Unlocked Nails or Plates Reconstruction Nails Gave Equal Results To Separate ORIF Femoral Neck & IM Nails Tornetta P, Kain M, Creevy W. Diagnosis of Femoral Neck Fractures in Patients With a Femoral Shaft Fracture J Bone Joint Surg 89: 39-43, 2007 Developed A Protocol To Diagnose A Femoral Neck Fracture In Pts With A Shaft Fx Dedicated AP Internal Rotation Plain X-Ray; 2mm CT Scan Thru Hip; & Intra-Op Fluroscopic AP And Lateral Views Prior To And After Fixation N=268 Femoral Shaft Fractures Identified 16 Associated Femoral Neck Fractures Using Protocol Conclusion: 91% Reduction In Delay in Diagnosis Compared To Year Prior To Protocol 6
