Core Tip	Femoral neck and subtrochanteric fractures in young patients are rare and can be difficult to treat because they require accurate reduction and stable fixation of both fractures. This case highlights a joint-preserving, dual-implant strategy using cannulated screws for the femoral neck fracture and a lateral hook plate for the subtrochanteric component to independently stabilize each fracture. This tailored fixation approach achieved stable early radiographic alignment in this complex, infrequently occurring proximal femoral injury pattern; longer-term follow-up is required to confirm fracture union and functional outcome.
