Osteoporotic femoral neck fractures (OFNFs) pose a significant orthopedic challenge in the elderly population, accounting for up to 40% of all osteoporotic fractures and leading to considerable health deterioration and increased mortality. In address...
X-ray is the primary tool for diagnosing fractures, crucial for determining their type, location, and severity. However, non-displaced femoral neck fractures (ND-FNF) can pose challenges in identification due to subtle cracks and complex anatomical s...
PURPOSE: Missed fractures are the most common radiologic error in clinical practice, and erroneous classification could lead to inappropriate treatment and unfavorable prognosis. Here, we developed a fully automated deep learning model to detect and ...
OBJECTIVE: This study aimed to use machine learning (ML) to establish risk factor and prediction models of osteonecrosis of the femoral head (ONFH) in patients with femoral neck fractures (FNFs) after internal fixation.
OBJECTIVE: Total hip arthroplasty (THA) remains the primary treatment option for femoral neck fractures in elderly patients. This study aims to explore the risk factors associated with allogeneic blood transfusion after surgery and to develop a dynam...

Patients with neck of femur fractures present a tremendous public health problem that leads to a high incidence of death and dysfunction. An essential factor is the postoperative length of stay, which heavily impacts hospital costs and the quality o...
PURPOSE: To evaluate the short-term clinical efficacy and advantages of surgery robot positioning system for insertion of Femoral Neck System (FNS) in the treatment of femoral neck fractures.
BACKGROUND/AIM: Femoral neck fracture (FNF) seriously impact the health of the elderly and affect their long-term quality of life of the patients. This study aimed to determine whether combining the preoperative Fried Frailty Phenotype (FFP) with ser...

Cannulated screw fixation is the main therapy for femoral neck fractures, especially in young patients. The traditional surgical procedure uses C-arm fluoroscopy to place the screw freehand and requires several guide wire adjustments, which increases...
This study aimed to develop a method for detection of femoral neck fracture (FNF) including displaced and non-displaced fractures using convolutional neural network (CNN) with plain X-ray and to validate its use across hospitals through internal and ...
