Abstract:Background
Femoral neck fractures (FNFs) comprise a large proportion of osteoporotic fractures in Asia. However, the full range of prognostic variables that affect prognosis remains unclear.

Methods
We evaluated the incidence of FNF internal fixation failures at regular intervals after surgery in data collected retrospectively… Show more
