Abstract
The aim of this paper is to show our results in the treatment of femur neck fractures in patients on hemodialysis. The femur neck fractures are more common in patients on hemodialysis than in patients without chronic renal failure. From the year 2000. to 2012, in the Traumatologic center of the CHC Zemun, 12 patients in terminal renal failure with femur neck fractures, were treated. The postoperative rehabilitation, occurence of complications and survival rates were followed. The operative treatment of femur neck fractures by implantation of endoprosthesis in patients with chronic renal failure, although followed by frequent complications, gives the patient a chance to return to normal activity.
