Core Tip Femoral neck fracture (FNF) is actually the most critical traumatic event in the elderly, because of the epidemic incidence and the high rate of mortality. Hip arthroplasty is the gold standard treatment for displaced FNFs, allowing early postoperative mobility, but severe complications may occur, increasing mortality and morbidity. Therefore, in most frail patients, alternative surgical options should be considered. Girdlestone resection arthroplasty is a salvage procedure which is currently used in various hip disorders. This article provides an updated analysis of outcomes of hip resection arthroplasty as a primary definitive treatment for acute FNF in frail non-ambulatory patients.
