10. Femural neck fractures
• Increasingly common due to aging population
• Women>men
• Mechanism
– High energy in young patients
– Low energy falls in older patients
• Pathophysiology
– healing potentia
• lfemoral neck is intracapsular, bathed in synovial fluid
• lacks periosteal layer
• callus formation limited, which affects healing
11. Pathophysiology
