Objective: In this study, we aimed to compare early functional results of cemented versus cementless modular head partial prostheses used in femoral neck fractures of elderly patients. Methods: We included 28 (21 female and 7 male) elderly patients who were accessible for the functional scoring and were treated by use of modular head partial prostheses due to a femoral neck fracture in our hospital between 2006 and 2008. Eleven hemiarthroplasties were cemented and 17 were cementless. Mean age was 74.6 years and mean follow-up period was 27 months. The Oxford hip scoring system was used for the functional evaluation of patients. Results: The mean Oxford score of the patient group treated with cemented modular head partial prostheses was 26.7 points and of the patient group treated with cementless modular head partial prostheses was 22.9 points. Mean Oxford scores and the distribution of patients in terms of Oxford classes showed no statistically significant difference between the cemented and the cementless groups (p>0.05). Conclusion: We obtained similar early functional results with cemented and cementless modular head partial prostheses used in femoral neck fractures of elderly patients. (JAREM 2012; 2: 1-5)
