Radiological and Functional Outcomes of Internal Fixation Methods for Ipsilateral Femoral Neck and Shaft Fractures in Young Adult Patients

Not yet recruiting

• Conditions: Ipsilateral Neck and Shaft Fractures and Internal Fixation Method and Follow Up At One Year Postoperative for Radiological and Functional Outcomes

• Registration Number: NCT06826521
• Lead Sponsor: Assiut University

Brief Summary

Does the single construct produce more favourable radiological and functional outcomes with less complication when it is compared to dual constructs for fixation of ipsilateral femoral neck and shaft fractures in young adult patients at one year follow up?

Detailed Description

The investigators will do follow up for internal fixation methods for ipsilateral femoral neck and shaft fractures in young adult patients at one year and observe does single construct will give favourable outcomes versus dual constructs?

Primary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
Radiological union evaluation	Assessment of radiological union and the time will be taken at one year follow up	Radiographic union evaluation of ipsilateral neck and shaft femur fractures after internal fixation methods at one year follow up in young adult patients using : Radiographic union score of the hip for neck fracture Radiographic union score for the femur fracture. Minimum score for these scales is 10 and maximum is 30 High score means good outcome

Secondary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
Functional outcome	One year follow up	Functional outcome will be assessed after internal fixation methods for ipsilateral femoral neck and shaft fractures in young adult patients using friedman and wyman scale to assess whether patients have pain , Impaired daily life activities and loss of hip and knee range of motion . this scale is categorised by good, fair and poor outcome Good which have no pain no impaired daily life activities and less than 20 % loss of hip and knee range of motion Fair mild impaired daily life activities, mild to moderate pain and 20_50% loss of hip and knee range of motion Poor moderate impaired daily life activities, severe pain and more than 50% loss of hip and knee range of motion.
Complications	One year follow up	Complications will be reported if occured like non- union, infection and avascular necrosis of the neck.
