My cousin had a car accident and he has Femoral head fracture. I’m not sure that I know enough about this kind of hip fracture. So, please, Can someone tell me more about Femoral head fracture? My cousin is young, he has 35 years and I hope that he can recover totally after surgery.

Femoral head fracture denotes a fracture involving the femoral head. This is usually the result of high energy trauma and a dislocation of the hip joint often accompanies this fracture. For most femoral neck fractures the treatment will be one of the following:
Hip Pinning or Hip Hemiarthroplasty. Best wishes!
