Biomechanical investigation of positive reduction in the femoral neck fracture: a finite element analysis
Excessive positive reduction may increase the risk of FNF failure after internal fixation. From a biomechanical stability perspective, positive reduction should be limited to 3 mm or below in the Pauwels I group, restricted to not exceed 2 mm in the Pauwels II group, and should not exceed 1 mm in the Pauwels III group. Negative reduction should be avoided in all Pauwels groups.
