Treatment of ipsilateral femoral neck and shaft fracture by augmented fixation via modified anterior approach: A case report

CASE: A 39-year-old man with obsolete fracture of the left femoral neck (AO/OTA31B2.3, Pauwels III) and segmental fracture of the ipsilateral shaft (AO/OTA32C2) caused by traffic accident was treated by a hybrid augmented fixation technique, long reconstruction intramedullary nail combined with medi...

Sumario:CASE: A 39-year-old man with obsolete fracture of the left femoral neck (AO/OTA31B2.3, Pauwels III) and segmental fracture of the ipsilateral shaft (AO/OTA32C2) caused by traffic accident was treated by a hybrid augmented fixation technique, long reconstruction intramedullary nail combined with medial anatomical buttress plate and poller screws. All procedures were carried out via the modified anterior approach with a good exposure of the fracture site. CONCLUSION: The hybrid augmented fixation technique via the modified anterior approach could improve fracture reduction and mechanical stability for ipsilateral femoral neck and shaft fractures.
