SummaryWe present the results of a retrospective review of 50 Müller straight stem total hip replacements performed for femoral neck fracture over a 10-year period.Patients and methodsBetween 1992 and 2002, 50 Müller straight stem total hip replacements were performed for femoral neck fracture in 42 female and 8 male patients with a mean age of 74 years.ResultsNo hips have required revision surgery. Two patients have suffered early dislocations and there have been three major medical complications. The mean Merle D’Aubigne–Postel score was 15.1. Of the 25 radiographs available for review there were no cases of radiological loosening.DiscussionThis is further evidence that total hip replacement in the right hands provides good results for the treatment of displaced intracapsular femoral neck fractures. The Müller straight stem gives acceptable results in a select group of patients.
