Abstract:Objective To compare the clinical curative effect of hip replacement surgery and dynamic hip screw internal fixation in treatment of displaced femoral neck fractures. Methods From January to December 2014, 100 patients with displaced femoral neck fractures were treated in our hospital. Their clinical data were retrospectively analyzed. Among them 63 cases were treated with total hip replacement surgery (observation group) and 37 patients were treated with dynamic hip screw internal fixation (control group). Then perioperative situation of the patients, hip joint function improvement Aubigné-Postel score 1 and 2 y after operation, occurrence of complications in 1 and 2 y after operation, and cost of treatment were compared between the two groups. Results The incision length, blood loss, intraoperative blood transfusion, operation time and hospitalization time were statistically different between the observation group and the control group (p < 0.05). In comparison of Aubigné-Postel hip joint function improvement score before operation, 1 and 2 y after operation between the two groups, the analysis of variance of repeated measurement data was used. The results showed that pain, movement, walking ability and total score were statistically different between the two groups (p < 0.05) and also different among different time points in each group (p < 0.05). The change trends of pain, movement, walking ability and total score had statistical differences (p < 0.05). The total incidence of complications was 9.6% in the observation group and 18.9% in the control group 1 y after operation, and was 25.6% in the control group and 29.7% in the observation group 2 y after operation, the differences were not statistically significant (p > 0.05). The initial surgical cost of the observation group was significantly higher than that of the control group, the cost of re-surgery and other medical costs were significantly lower than those of the the control group, the total cost in the observation group was slightly higher than that in the control group, the differences were statistically significant (p < 0.05). Conclusions For treatment of displaced femoral neck fractures, hip replacement surgery has lower incidence of short-term complications, and better long-term clinical efficacy and hip function compared to dynamic hip screw fixation, but the cost of treatment is higher. Therefore, patients can make choice according to their own circumstances.
