Biomechanical Comparative Study for Osteosynthesis of Pauwels Type III Femoral Neck Fractures: Conventional Devices versus Novel Fixed Angle Devices.

Among novel fixed angle devices, meaningful improvement was observed for the IKEY nail compared with conventional implants. Strengths of this implant include biomechanical stability and simplicity of surgical technique, indicating that it may be another good option for osteosynthesis of Pauwels type III femoral neck fractures.
