| Abstract | Background The optimal treatment method for managing unstable Pauwels III femoral neck fractures remains undetermined. The aim of this study was to compare the biomechanical properties of two types of Femoral Neck Anti-rotation and Support System (FNAS) and a Femoral Neck System (FNS) in unstable Pauwels III femoral neck fractures. Methods Eighteen synthetic femoral models were implanted with one of three fixation devices: FNS, FNAS I, or FNAS II. An unstable Pauwels III (OTA/AO 31-B2.3) femoral neck fracture was simulated using a custom-made needle and osteotomy guide. Torsion and axial compression loading tests were conducted, and the torque, torsion angle, load to failure, displacement, and stiffness values were recorded. Results FNAS II exhibited significantly higher torsional stiffness (0.67 ± 0.10 Nm/°) compared to FNAS I (0.52 ± 0.07 Nm/°, P = 0.01) and FNS (0.54 ± 0.07 Nm/°, P = 0.005). FNS demonstrated significantly greater mean axial stiffness (239.24 ± 11.38 N/mm) than both FNAS I (179.33 ± 31.11 N/mm, P = 0.005) and FNAS II (190.07 ± 34.11 N/mm, P = 0.022). FNAS I (302.37 ± 33.88 N/mm, P = 0.001) and FNAS II (319.59 ± 50.10 N/mm, P < 0.001) showed significantly higher initial axial stiffness compared to FNS (197.08 ± 33.68 N/mm). Both FNAS I and II improved resistance to deforming forces at a load level before approximately 1000 N, which is sufficient to withstand the load from most daily life activities. No significant differences were observed in compression failure load among the groups. The failure patterns at the point of failure included the pull-out of the distal locking screw and reverse oblique intertrochanteric femur fracture for FNS, while for FNAS I and II, the failures were characterized by a cleft on the calcar femorale and a decrease in the load–displacement curve. Conclusions In unstable Pauwels III femoral neck fractures, the FNAS II enhances stability and is easier to manage for reoperation. The results of the current study support the potential of FNAS II as an alternative option for treating unstable Pauwels III femoral neck fractures in young individuals. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
