Case Reports
Management of an unusual intra- and extra-capsular subcapital femoral neck fracture
Acta Orthop Belg.
2005 Oct.
Abstract
Femoral neck fractures are common in the elderly after low-energy falls. They are broadly grouped into either intracapsular or extracapsular fractures. We report an unusual subcapital femoral neck intra-extracapsular fracture and discuss the management of such a case with its inherent problems.
