Case Discussion
In patients who are medically stable and without significant comorbid illness, surgery should be performed within 24 hours.
Delay in surgical repair will result in postponement of full weight bearing status, leading to delayed functional recovery. In addition, prolonged bed rest may increase the risk of medical complications, including deep vein thrombosis, pneumonia, urinary tract infection, and skin breakdown.
The patient was referred to the general hospital for the necessary procedure. Pelvis CT scan was done. The patient underwent (CRIF) closed reduction and internal (Asnis Cannulated Screws) fixation of a left hip neck fracture.
