Tensor Fascia Lataemuscle Pedicle Bone Grafting for a Neglected Fracture Neck of Femur using Fiber Wire Suture, A Case Report

Sharath K. R. | Daksh Gadi [4] | Amit Grover [2]


Abstract: Neglected fracture neck femur have been considered a challenging problem to treat, more so in young patients where head salvage procedures are essential. Head salvage procedures like valgus osteotomy, non-vascularised bone grafting, muscle pedicle bone grafting and vascularised bone grafting have been mentioned in the literature. To the best of our knowledge very few cases have been treated using tensor fascia latae muscle pedicle graft augmentation to cannulated cancellous screws. We hereby document a neglected fracture neck femur case successfully treated by tensor fascia latae muscle pedicle grafting.
