2006 Primary Arthroplasty Is Better Than Internal Fixation of Displaced Femoral Neck Fractures by m8x4xwfzc8 is a document available to read on EtoBox.

This meta-analysis of 14 randomized studies involving 2,289 patients concludes that primary arthroplasty is superior to internal fixation for treating displaced femoral neck fractures, resulting in fewer complications and reoperations. The analysis indicates no significant difference in mortality rates between the two treatment methods. It recommends primary arthroplasty for most patients, particularly those aged 70-80, while suggesting hemiarthroplasty for older or frail individuals.
