Risk factors for avascular necrosis in pediatric femoral neck fractures: a systematic review and meta-analysis
Older age, Delbet type I/II classification, initial displacement, and poor reduction quality are significant predictors of AVN following PFNFs. Early reduction and CRIF may provide superior long-term outcomes. Further high-quality prospective studies with extended follow-up are needed to confirm these findings.
