Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
radiological and functional evaluation of the time and rate of union according harris hip score
The domains covered in Harris hip score are pain, function, absence of deformity, and range of motion. The pain domain measures pain severity and its effect on activities and need for pain medication. The function domain consists of daily activities (stair use, using public transportation, sitting, and managing shoes and socks) and gait (limp, support needed, and walking distance). Deformity takes into account hip flexion, adduction, internal rotation, and extremity length discrepancy. Range of motion measures hip flexion, abduction, external and internal rotation, and adduction .
one year
Interventions
* Reduction: one trial of closed reduction under anaesthesia and image control. Open reduction will be done by anterolateral or lateral approach if closed reduction failed * Fixation: internal fixation of the fracture by appropriate implant according to the fracture state
