Results: The average age of 7 patients was 51 years old and the mean follow-up was 27.3 months. The mean Harris score was improved to 84.3 from 36.7 before operation in the latest follow-up. The prosthesis position of acetabular and femoral was excellent, there was no sinking or softening of artificial joint, nonunion of femoral osteotomy.

Conclusion: The preliminary clinical results are quite satisfactory of the shorting of posterior femoral and total hip arthroplasty to old femoral neck fracture with severe hip joint dislocation, the follow-up is necessary for further long-term outcome.
