Purpose.
The purpose of this study is to verify whether the headless cannulated compression screw (HCCS) has higher biomechanical stability than the ordinary cannulated compression screw (OCCS) in the treatment of vertical femoral neck fractures.
Materials and Methods.
30 synthetic femur models were equally divided into 2 groups, with 50°, 60°, and 70° Pauwels angle of femoral neck fracture, under 3D printed guiding plates and C-arm fluoroscopic guidance.
The femur molds were fixed with three parallel OCCSs as OCCS group and three parallel HCCSs as HCCS group.
All specimens were tested for compressive strength and maximum load to failure with a loading rate of 2 mm/min.
Results.
The result showed that there was no significant difference with the compressive strength in the Pauwels angle of 50° and 60°.
However, we observed that the maximum load to failure with the Pauwels angle of 50°, 60°, and 70° and the compressive strength with 70° of HCCS group showed better performance than the OCCS group.
Conclusion.
HCCS performs with better biomechanical stability than OCCS in the treatment of vertical femoral neck fracture, especially with the Pauwels angle of 70°.
