Iatrogenic femoral neck fractures or separation of the proximal femoral epiphysis during closed reduction of irreducible femoral head fracture–dislocations in children: a review of 12 cases

For pediatric patients with irreducible femoral head fracture-dislocation injuries and a fragment ratio greater than 10%, repeated or forceful closed reduction may result in iatrogenic FNF or SPFE. Examining plain radiographs and CT images carefully before attempting reduction may help determine the safest treatment strategy.

Abstract

For pediatric patients with irreducible femoral head fracture-dislocation injuries and a fragment ratio greater than 10%, repeated or forceful closed reduction may result in iatrogenic FNF or SPFE. Examining plain radiographs and CT images carefully before attempting reduction may help determine the safest treatment strategy.
