Treatment of a femoral neck fracture combined with ipsilateral femoral head and intertrochanteric fractures: A case report.

BACKGROUND

This article presents a rare case of a complex hip fracture involving the ipsilateral femoral neck, trochanter, and femoral head, that was accompanied by hip dislocation. Currently, there is no established standard treatment method for this specific type of fracture. Therefore, it is crucial to comprehensively consider factors such as patient age, fracture type, and degree of displacement to achieve a successful outcome.

CASE SUMMARY: A 38-year-old man sustained a comminuted fracture of his right hip as a result of a car accident. The injuries included a fracture of the femoral head, a fracture of the femoral neck, an intertrochanteric fracture of the femur, and a posterior dislocation of the hip on the same side. We opted for a treatment approach combining the use of a proximal femoral locking plate, cannulated screws, and Kirschner wires. Following the surgery, we developed an individualized rehabilitation program to restore patient limb function.

CONCLUSION

For this complex fracture, we selected appropriate internal fixation and formulated individualized rehabilitation, which ultimately achieved good results.
