Evaluation of Hemiarthroplasty by Bipolar Prosthesis in Displaced Femoral Neck fracture
View through CrossRef
Background: Fracture neck of femur typically occurs in elderly patients from low energy fall from standing height. There is an increased risk of mortality and morbidity in these patients. Surgery is mandatory to alleviate complications. Hemiarthroplasty is one of the surgical options of the femoral neck fracture. Objective: To evaluate the outcome of hemiarthroplasty by bipolar prosthesis in displaced femoral neck fracture. Methods: This quasi experimental type of study was carried out among the admitted patients in Barind Medical College Hospital (BMCH). A total 53 patients admitted in BMCH from January- 2018 to December-2019 with displaced femoral neck fractures were included in this study. All patients underwent hemiarthroplasty with bipolar prosthesis without cement. Final outcome were evaluated after 1 year of surgery and assessment of Harris Hip Score. Results: Harris Hip Score was excellent in 5 cases, good in 38 cases, fair in 9 cases and poor in only 1 case. Conclusion: Hemiarthroplasty by bipolar prosthesis is one of theeffective treatment of displaced femoral neck fracture.
