[Method of treating femur head dislocation fractures].
The fracture and dislocation of the head of the femur is still an uncommon accident, however, involving many complications. To avoid secondary damage a closed reduction should be obtained as soon as possible and with great care. Osteosynthesis of the femur head fragments is desireable for congruency of the joint surfaces and to prevent post traumatic arthrosis. Only this treatment allows for functional physical therapy. Type 3 fractures in patients over 65 and also multiple fractures of the femur head should be treated with a prosthesis implant. In young people primary reconstruction of the joint should be attempted in every case.
