Abstract
PURPOSE Several surgical implants have been used for the treatment of neck of femur fracture (NOF) in younger patients such as dynamic hip screw (DHS) and cannulated compression screw. However, the superiority of one or another osteosynthesis device remains a matter of debate. The aim of this work is to evaluate and compare three fixation modalities: Cannulated Hip Screws (CHS), DHS and DHS associated to anti-rotating screw for surgical treatment of femoral neck fracture in young adults. METHODS It is a retrospective comparative study of three series of NOF fractures treated surgically over a period of ten years; including young adult patients (age > 18 years and < 65 years) treated conservatively using closed or open reduction and internal fixation. All types of NOF fractures according to Garden classification were included. Pathological, basi-cervical fractures and fractures on previously operated hips were excluded. The minimum follow-up recommended was two years. Clinical evaluation was based on the Postel Merle d'Aubigné score (PMA), the visual analogue scale (VAS), the Parker score, and the Hip Disability and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score (HOOS score). Reduction quality was assessed on X-rays. RESULTS Our series included 72 patients that were divided in three groups: Group A: Fixation using cannulated hip screws (33 patients). Group B: Fixation using DHS only (21 patients). Group C: Fixation using DHS associated to anti-rotation screw (18 patients). The patients of group A had better PMA and VAS scores, but there was no statistically significant difference. However, a significant difference (p=0.001) was found for the HOOS score. The fractures treated with DHS associated with anti-rotating screws, had the highest loss of reduction in the vertical axis (Yp) with the highest femoral head collapse (Zp) values. Group A had the lowest loss of reduction in the horizontal axis (Xp). There was no significant difference between the three methods of osteosynthesis in terms of loss of correction though. CONCLUSION We found comparable results in terms of healing and complication rates and loss of reduction for the three groups with no significant difference. However, the HOOS score was significantly better in the cannulated hip screw group.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To compare the efficacy of percutaneous compression plate and cannulated compression screw in the treatment of displaced femoral neck fractures in young and middle-aged patients. METHODS From January 2015 to July 2020, 68 young and middle-aged patients with displaced femoral neck fracture were retrospectively analyzed. Among them, 31 cases were fixed by percutaneous compression plate (PCCP), and 37 cases were fixed by cannulated compression screw (CCS). General data such as gender, age, cause of injury, comorbidities, fracture classification and cause of injury of two groups were collected. The operation time, intraoperative blood loss, hospital stay, full weight bearing time, fracture healing time, visual analogue scale(VAS), Harris hip score and complications were compared between two groups. RESULTS Patients in both groups were followed up for more than 2 years. There were no significant differences in operation time, intraoperative blood loss, fracture reduction quality, hospital stay and VAS between two groups. The fracture healing time in PCCP group was significantly shorter than that in CCS group (t=-4.404, P=0.000). The complete weight bearing time of PCCP group was significantly shorter than that of CCS group (t=-9.011, P=0.000). Harris score of hip joint in PCCP group was better than that in CCS group 2 years after operation (P=0.002). Complications occurred in 3 cases (9.68%) in PCCP group, while 11 cases (29.72%) in CCS group, with a statistically significant difference (P=0.042). CONCLUSION Both PCCP and CCS can be used for the treatment of displaced femoral neck fractures in young and middle-aged people. Compared with CCS, PCCP fixation can achieve shorter fracture healing time and create conditions for early full weight bearing. PCCP results in higher hip score and lower complications.

Abstract
Purpose Femoral neck fractures are still unsolved problems nowadays; sliding hip screw (SHS) and cannulated compression screw (CCS) are the most commonly used devices. We evaluated the clinical outcomes and complications in the treatment of femoral neck fractures between SHS and CCS in this meta-analysis to find which is better. Methods We searched PubMed, Embase, Cochrane library up to 24 August 2020 and retrieved any studies comparing sliding hip screw and cannulated compression screw in treatment of femoral neck fractures; the main outcomes and complications were extracted from the studies which were included. Results Nine studies involving 1662 patients (828 patients in the SHS group and 834 patients in the CCS group) were included in this study. SHS had higher rate of avascular necrosis (RR = 1.30, 95% CI 1.08–1.56, p = 0.005), and CCS had higher rate of implant removal (RR = 0.63, 95% CI 0.43–0.93, p = 0.02). No significant statistical difference in non-union, implant failure, infection, replacement, mortality, orthopedic complications, non-orthopedic complications, and total revision between SHS and CCS group. Conclusion Both devices have their pros and cons; SHS had a higher rate of avascular necrosis, and CCS had a higher rate of implant removal rate. No significant statistical difference in non-union, implant failure, infection, replacement, mortality, orthopedic complications, non-orthopedic complications, and total revision between SHS and CCS group.

Abstract
The number and spatial configuration of the screws will affect the stability and prognosis of the fractures. In our study, we assessed the biomechanical effects of the double-head cannulated compression screw (DhCCS) and ordinary cannulated compression screw (OCCS) for the treatment of femoral neck fractures by using computer finite element analysis. The original digital imaging and communications in medicine (DICOM)data of a proximal femur were imported into Materialise's interactive medical image control system (MIMICS)software for modeling. Both DhCCS and OCCS 3D-models were obtained by using the 3D scan technique. Using the fracture model and internal fixation assembly model with an inverted triangle, two horizontal and vertical distribution were established in UG software. Next, the displacement and stress distribution were calculated in ANSYS software. The displacement value of the femoral head in the DhCCS group was smaller than that in the OCCS group, and the displacement value in the two horizontal groups was smaller than that in the vertical group. The stress distribution in the DhCCS group was concentrated on the screw rod at the fracture block and thread end, while only at the fracture block in the OCCS group. The stress in the horizontal group was more dispersed on the screws than that in the vertical group. DhCCS has reliable stability for the fixation of femoral neck fractures and applied in the clinical work and 2 horizontal fixation can be used when two screws are selected.
