Femoral neck stress fractures are rare and often recognized as overuse injuries that occur in young athletes or military personnel. A case following osteonecrosis of the femoral head is quite rare; even more uncommon is its occurrence in the bilateral hips.
Symptoms of a femoral stress fracture. Symptoms include a dull ache deep in the general area of the thigh. There is likely to be pain when a bending force is applied to the femur. This is known as the hang test. The patient allows their thigh to hang over the edge of a bench or chair.
A femoral fracture is a break in the thigh bone. It runs from the hip to the knee. This injury is caused by trauma from: A motor vehicle accident Stress on a weakened bone Things that may raise the risk are: Having a health problem that may result in falls, such as weak muscles
Femoral neck fractures are a specific type of intracapsular hip fracture. The femoral neck connects the femoral shaft with the femoral head. The hip joint is the articulation of the femoral head with the acetabulum. The junctional location makes the femoral neck prone to fracture. The blood supply of the femoral head is an essential consideration in displaced fractures as it runs along the femoral neck.
Femoral neck (subcapital) fractures: These fractures occur in the neck of the thighbone. Metal pins can be inserted to support the femoral head. Intertrochanteric fractures: These fractures occur in the large bumps of bone (trochanters) below the neck of the thighbone.
subcapital is the femoral head and neck junction. transcervical is the mid portion of femoral neck. basicervical is the base of femoral neck.
Subcapital fracture is the most common type of intracapsular neck of femur fracture. The fracture line extends through the junction of the head and neck of femur.
ICD-10-CM Code for Fracture of unspecified part of neck of left femur, initial encounter for closed fracture S72. 002A.
A subcapital fracture is one of the common types of intracapsular fractures of the femur. These fractures occur at the top level of the femur within a soft-tissue capsule envelope containing lubricant and fluid necessary for the hip joint to move properly.
Subcapital fracture is the commonest type of intracapsular fracture of the proximal femur. The fracture line extends through the junction of the head and neck of femur.
Options for the treatment of subcapital femoral neck fractures basically fall into two categories: internal fixation or arthroplasty (either hemiarthroplasty or total hip arthroplasty).
subcapital (plural subcapitals) A secondary or regional capital; the capital of a subdivision.
Subtrochanteric (ST) femur fractures are defined as fractures of the proximal femur that occur within 5 cm of the lesser trochanter. 1. Overall, the incidence of these fractures has been estimated to be approximately 15–20 per 100,000 individuals.

You have broken your thigh bone close to your hip joint. The hip joint connects the thigh to the pelvis.
