Femoral Neck FracturesUndisplaced Fracture

Investigational drug(s) / intervention(s)

ArthroplastyInternal Fixation

Arthroplasty: Patients with an undisplaced femoral neck fracture receive a hemi or total hip arthroplasty depending on each hospital's routine for patient age and mobility.

Internal Fixation: Patients with an undisplaced femoral neck fracture undergo a closed reduction and internal fixation with 2-3 screws or pins, or sliding hip screw device. Type of fixation depends on each hospital's routine.

Study summary

A registerbased RCT will investigate whether arthroplasty can decrease the reoperation rate compared to internal fixation for patients with an undisplaced femoral neck fracture (Garden I-II).
