title: [Late results of 351 femoral neck fractures (1986-1987 treatment period)].
abstract: A total of 351 femoral neck fractures were treated from 1986 to 1987. The fractures were classified into three groups according to Pauwels. Nineteen percent of fractures were treated conservatively; in 65% internal fixation was performed, while in 16% total hip endoprosthesis was done. Of these patients 254 were reexamined three years later. In only 24.4% of the 254 patients were poor results--necrosis of the femoral head--found.
