Femoral Neck System vs. Traditional Hip Fixation: Which is Better?
Hip fractures, especially femoral neck fractures , require effective fixation for proper healing and mobility. Traditional methods like cannulated screws and dynamic hip screws (DHS) have been widely used but come with risks like implant failure and avascular necrosis. The newer Femoral Neck System (FNS) offers improved stability, faster healing, and fewer complications. While FNS shows promise, the best fixation method depends on factors like patient age, bone quality, and fracture type. Each technique has its advantages, and the choice should be based on individual needs and surgeon expertise.
