History of internal fixation in fractures of the femoral neck in the late ХХth century. Modern achievements

Summary/Abstract: The osteosynthesis of the fractures of the femoral neck have been associated with high complication rates during the long history of the treatment of this devastating injury. This review is dedicated to the history of the internal fixation of the fractures of the femoral neck during the 1970-s and 1980-s. The massive and bulky fixed-angle implants used until that time have been gradually abandoned and replaced for the multiple-screw fixation. The cannulated screws, introduced during the 1980-s, have shown supreme clinical results compared to that of the fixed-angle implants and became the fore-runner of the used today methods of screw fixation.
