Where this comes from

Abstract

Femoral neck fractures are frequently treated with open reduction and internal fixation to achieve anatomical reduction. This video demonstrates open reduction internal fixation of a femoral neck fracture in a 59-year-old man, performed through an anterior approach. This approach provides safe and effective access to the femoral neck, including the subcapital and basicervical regions, with excellent direct visualization of the fracture site.
