ABSTRACT
Background: Fracture of the neck femur has always presented challenges to orthopaedic surgeons and remains, in many ways, today the unsolved fracture as far as treatment and results are concerned. Aims & Objectives: The present study was conducted with the aim to analyze the results of cemented hemi-replacement endoprosthesis in fracture of neck femur in elderly patients. Materials And Methods: This prospective and observational study was conducted to analyze the results in patients with fracture neck femur treated with hemi-replacement arthroplasty using cemented bipolar prosthesis. At 6 months postoperatively results were rated as excellent, good, fair or poor according to modified Harris Hip Score. Results: Out of 25 patients, excellent results were obtained in 16 patients (64%) and good results in 7 patients (28%). No cases of poor results were found in the present study. Only 2 patients (8%) had fair results. The majority of the patients had reasonably good range of motion at final follow up. The mean Harris Hip Score was 91.32. Conclusion: Cemented Bipolar Hemi-replacement Arthroplasty is an effective mode of treatment to restore the function, allowing early mobilization in elderly patients with femoral neck fracture and consistently providing excellent results with negligible complications.
Key-words: Fracture neck femur, Cemented bipolar hemiarthroplasty, Hip surgery.
