Abstract
Femur neck fractures are difficult to treat if left untreated. A young patient's head of femur should be preserved. There are several bone graft options, including osteosynthesis, osteotomy with or without vascular or non-vascular grafts. It was determined that osteosynthesis with nonvascularized fibula grafting can be effective when treating neglected fracture necks of the femur in young adults. The participants in this study were 15-60-year-old with traumatic fracture necks of the femur that were delayed over 3 weeks. In 81.25% of our patients, the HHS was 70 or higher. 6.25% of patients did not union and 12.5% had AVN. For young patients suffering from neglected fracture necks of femur, nonvascular fibula grafting appears to be a viable treatment option. In comparison with other more complicated procedures, it is technically less demanding
