Analysis of risk factors for complications after femoral neck fracture in pediatric patients

Journal of Orthopaedic Surgery and Research Feb 26, 2020

Dai ZZ, Zhang ZQ, Ding J, et al. - In order to find out the rate of complications after femoral neck fracture in pediatric patients and investigates the possible risk factors, a total of 44 children (mean age of 9.0 years, range from 2 to 14 years) who were surgically treated for femoral neck fracture in a single trauma center with a mean follow-up of 57.75 months (range from 11 to 224 months) were retrospectively examined. Researchers applied a multivariable logistic regression to record and examine related clinical factors. Both the injury mechanism and fracture characteristics have age-related distributions for femoral neck fracture in pediatric individuals. As per the results, the early reduction should be carried out as early as possible based on the safe condition of the child, but for younger children, transepiphyseal fixation should be avoided.
