Objective. To compare the clinical effect of proximal femoral locking plate (PFLP) versus multiple cancellous screw (MCS) for FNF. Methods. FNF patients were treated with the PFLP implant or multiple cancellous screws (MCSs). Patient has been followed up for at least 12 months after surgery nonunion, and the occurrence of complications, femoral neck shortening, fracture healing time, and Harris hip score were recorded and compared. Results. 77 FNF patients were treated with the PFLP (36 patients) or MCS (41 patients). The sex, age, side of the injured limb, type of Garden fracture, time from injury to surgery, and fracture healing time of two groups patients were comparable. The operation time and intraoperative blood loss in the PFLP group were worse than those in the MCS group. Two patients with the PFLP (5%) and nine patients (21%) with the MCS experienced cut out of the lag screw or avascular necrosis of the femoral head or nonunion and received hip replacement. However, the number of fluoroscopies in the PFLP group was significantly lower than that in the MCS group. Additionally, the femoral neck shortening and Harris hip score were all strongly better in the PFLP group than in the MCS group. Conclusions. Compared with the MCS, PFLP treatment for FNF in young adults can decrease the fluoroscopy times, improve hip functional recovery, and reduce the complications rate and femoral neck shortening.
