Novel Treatment Options for the Surgical Management of Young Femoral Neck Fractures.

abstract：OBJECTIVE:To evaluate the cost-effectiveness of screw fixation versus hemiarthroplasty for nondisplaced femoral neck fractures in low-demand elderly patients. METHODS:We constructed a Markov decision model using a low-demand, 80-year-old patient as the base case. Costs, health-state utilities, mortality rates, and tra...
