The purpose of this study was to evaluate the clinical-radiological results of a group of patients with a bascervical proximal femoral fractures treated with Percutaneous Compression Plate (PCCP). Material and methods: Among 5817 patients with a hip fracture who were admitted in our hospital from January 2005 to December 2017, 234 factures (4%) were diagnosed of basicervical femoral fracture. 30 of them were treated with a PCCP, 22 women and 8 men, mean age was 81.2 years (63-94). Demographic and perioperative variables were collected. The patients were followed up at 1, 3 and 6 months clinically and radiologically. Results: There were no intra-operative complications and no conversions to open surgery. There was no early implant failure. No surgical wound infection was diagnosed. Crude mortality was 13% the first year and 87% were able to walk at the 6 months. The last follow-up x-rays revealed 97% fracture healing and the collapse at fracture site occurred in 4 hips. No instances of cut-out were observed. In one case, a fatigue failure of the lag screws of a PCCP plate was observed at 3 months from osteosynthesis. Conclusion: PCCP is an appropriated implant for basicervical femoral neck fractures. © 20212021http://zaguan.unizar.es/record/16793910.1016/j.injury.2021.03.062http://zaguan.unizar.es/record/167939oai:zaguan.unizar.es:167939Injury 52, 4 (2021), S42-S46All rights reservedhttp://www.europeana.eu/rights/rr-f/info:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccess
