ABSTRACT
Middle-aged and elderly patients with femoral neck fracture often suffer from basic diseases. Conservative treatment will significantly increase the incidence of complications. At present, surgical treatment is mostly advocated. Internal fixation is one of the effective treatment methods for middle-aged and elderly patients with femoral neck fracture. It has the advantages of improving hip joint function, accelerating patient recovery, and improving patient quality of life. At present, there are many choices of internal fixation in the world, each has its own advantages and disadvantages, and there is no unified standard. Different surgical methods can be selected according to various factors such as fracture type, patient′s physical condition and surgical auxiliary technology. This article reviews the clinical progress of internal fixation for femoral neck fractures in middle-aged and elderly patients from four aspects: the characteristics of femoral neck fractures in middle-aged and elderly patients, common internal fixation methods, 3D printing guide plate auxiliary technology and artificial intelligence auxiliary technology.
ABSTRACT
Bone defects caused by trauma, infection, tumor and other factors is a thorny problem in orthopedic clinic, and promoting bone repair and regeneration is the key and difficult point of treatment. In addition to autologous bone grafting, artificial bone materials are often used for large bone defects. β-tricalcium phosphate has good biocompatibility, bone conduction and bone induction properties, and has been studied deeply because of its excellent drug delivery performance and has shown broad application prospects. In this paper, the author will summarize the research progress of β-tricalcium phosphate composites loaded with different drugs in the treatment of bone defects caused by trauma, infection and tumor.
