Clinical Trial 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).


Clinical Trial Description

The aim of this study is to determine whether the treatment of elderly patients with an undisplaced femoral neck fracture (uFNF) can be improved by decreasing reoperation rates through replacing the hip instead of trying to preserve it. Patients ≥75 years with an uFNF will be included and randomized within the Swedish Fracture Register (SFR) platform to internal fixation (screws/pins) or arthroplasty (choice of hemi or total is at the surgeon's discretion). The primary outcome will be a composite variable that combines two variables (reoperations and mortality) into a single variable. ;
