Abstract:
Neck of femur fracture is one of the most common gediatric fractures that is encountered in orthopaedic practice. We hereby present a case of middle aged male with neck of femur fracture on whom salvage of head was done using standard cannulated Cancellous screw fixation . However inspite of good fixation the neck went for nonunion and eventually replacement was done. This warranted us to re-look and re-invent certain current principles and understanding of treatment of neck of femur fractures.
Keywords:
