New treatment option for Femoral Neck Fractures
Official title Evaluation of Fracture Migration After Internal Fixation of Femoral Neck Fractures in Younger Adults: A Clinical RCT Using RSA
ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT06521671
What this study is testing
- What it's testing
- The goal of the clinical trial is to compare different surgical methods for internal fixation of femoral neck fractures in younger adults. The main question it aims to answer is: Is internal fixation with the novel implant consisting of three angle stable screws locked together by a plate equal to internal fixation with cancellous screws or a sliding hip screw in younger adults under 65 years of age in terms of fracture migration?
