Abstract: Background Hip fractures represent the most common injury and the main cause of morbidity and mortality among patients 65 years and older. About 20% of all femoral neck fractures (FNFs) are non-displaced or valgus impacted, for… read more here.

Abstract: INTRODUCTION Lateral radiographs are important for the evaluation of Garden I and II femoral neck fractures. These fractures appear undisplaced in the anteroposterior view, but posterior tilt of the femoral head may still be present… read more here.

Abstract: BackgroundStudies of elderly patients with Garden-I and Garden-II femoral neck fractures (FNFs) suggest that a preoperative posterior tilt of the femoral head of at least 20° increases the risk of fixation failure. A recently published… read more here.

Abstract: BACKGROUD Reliable scapular upward rotation and anterior-posterior tilt data are required for patients with subacromial impingement syndrome (SIS). Only a few studies have explored the reliability of such measurements derived using a modified inclinometer. OBJECTIVES… read more here.
