| Core Tip |
Iatrogenic femoral neck fractures, though rare, are a notable complication during or after femoral shaft fixation with interlocking nails. This study highlights key technical errors-erroneous entry points, misdirected nail manipulation, and forceful jig hammering-as primary causes. Early recognition and adherence to surgical precision can prevent such fractures. Timely diagnosis and appropriate fracture management are essential to optimize patient outcomes and reduce postoperative morbidity. |
