Abstract:

BACKGROUND: Elderly patients with femoral neck fractures have poor regulatory mechanism, accompanied by a variety of comorbidities and complications, so the treatment and rehabilitation of perioperative femoral neck fracture is very important.
OBJECTIVE: To review the prosthesis selection and complication treatment in perioperative femoral neck fracture in elderly patients.
METHODS: A computer-based research was conducted in PubMed database and CNKI database for the articles published since 2000, the key words were “elderly, femoral neck fracture, perioperative, treatment and rehabilitation, hip fracture” in Chinese and English. The clinical researches were selected. The subjects were the femoral neck fracture patients with the age over 65 years. The review literatures and the literatures with small cases and old were eliminated, and finally 20 literatures were included for analysis.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: Due to the osteoporosis of the elderly patients, the internal fixation often failed. For the Garden Ⅲ and Ⅳ femoral neck fracture patients with the age over 65 years, as long as there is no clear contraindication for surgery, the hip replacement is often used for the treatment. The tolerance of the patients should be accurately evaluated before replacement, and the blood pressure, blood glucose and various medical complications should be controlled; the rehabilitation training after replacement is also essential. The common complications in elderly patients after replacement include stress ulcer, deep venous thrombosis, neuropsychiatric symptoms, urinary tract infections and the surgical infection.
