Abstract
Neglected fracture neck of femur is a common presentation in developing countries like India. We report a case of 58years old male patient which was successfully managed at our institute. Treatment options vary from arthroplasty and osteotomy (with or without graft) to osteosynthesis using various implants and grafting techniques (muscle pedicle, vascularized, and non-vascularised fibular graft). We performed a non vascularised fibular graft with cancellous screw fixation. Patient had a satisfactory bony union without any avascular changes. We emphasize that Non vascularised fibular graft is a treatment option for surgical management of fracture neck of femur.
