ABSTRACT
Objective To summarize the perioperative characters of femoral neck fractures in patients aged at over 80 years by analyzing the surgical treatment procedures. Methods A retrospective study was done on data of patients with femoral neck fractures treated surgically from June 2000 and June 2008. There were 25 males and 36 females, at average age of 83.4 years (80-94 years). Of all, there were 53 patients with fresh fractures including six with type Garden Ⅰ or Ⅱ fractures and 47 with type Garden Ⅲ or Ⅳ fractures, eight with old fractures ( all type Garden Ⅳ). Fifty-one patients (84%) were accompanied with preexisted internal medical or neurological diseases. Six patients with type Garden Ⅰ or Ⅱ fractures were treated with cannulated screw fixation (CSF). Among 55 patients with type Garden Ⅲ or Ⅳ fractures inclu-ding 47 fresh fractures and 8 old ones, 53 patients were treated by hip hemiarthroplasty (HHA) but the other two by cemented total hip arthroplasty (THA) because of preexisting hip osteoarthritis. Results The average operation duration and blood loss were 51 minutes and 50 ml in CSF group, 81 minutes and 180 ml in HHA group, 105 minutes and 350 ml in THA group. Fifteen patients (25%) had postoperative com-plications, mostly hypotension, cardiac insufficiency and atrial fibrillation, accounting for 12%. Postoperative hemoglobin was decreased by 11.9%, 17.1% and 18. 1% on average respectively in CSF group, HHA group and THA group, and postoperative albumin decreased by 10.8%, 18. 1% and 20.2% on average respectively in CSF group, HHA group and THA group. There were 17 patients (28%) with hemoglobin below 100 g/L and four (7%) with albumin below 30 g/L after operation. Conclusions The patients aged ≥80 years with femoral neck fractures are usually accompanied with preexisted internal medical or neurological diseases and have high risk in operation. Adequate preoperative preparation and active prevention and treatment of perioperative complications are important for successful operation and good postoperative results.
