Nonanatomical Reduction of Femoral Neck Fractures in Young Patients (≤65 Years Old) with Internal Fixation Using Three Parallel Cannulated Screws

<div>Follow-up of a female patient (51 years old) with negative buttress position reduction (a–f). (a) Presurgery. (b) Immediately after surgery: negative buttress position reduction (blue arrow). (c) 6 months after surgery: nonunion remained and perforation occurred. (d) 15 months after surgery: fracture healed, while perforation remained. (e) 2 years after surgery: avascular necrosis of the femoral head (AVN) occurred. (f) 2 years after surgery: total hip arthroplasty (THA) was performed.</div>
