Objective
femoral neck fractures, fractures, femoral neck fracture
Recently, some clinical studies have reported the use of an intramedullary nailing system for treating unstable femoral neck fractures or femoral neck fractures combined with femoral shaft fractures in young adults, and the results have indicated certain advantages. However, no study has investigated the mechanical properties of this method. We aimed to evaluate the mechanical stability and clinical efficacy of the Gamma nail combined with one cannulated compression screw (CCS) fixation for treating Pauwels type III femoral neck fracture in young and middle‐aged adults.
