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).

Conditions

  • Femoral Neck Fractures
  • Undisplaced Fracture

Interventions

DEVICE

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.
