Abstract
We determined that a femoral neck fracture in an ESRD patient is a unique case and should be treated differently from general treatment protocols. It is suggested that regardless of patient age,nondisplaced fractures should be treated with osteosynthesis, while hemiarthroplasty is a better treatment for displaced fractures.
