    The study evaluated femoral neck shortening outcomes in 163 young and middle-aged patients with displaced femoral neck fractures.

  • 2

    Patients were divided into two groups: FNS alone (n=94) and FNS combined with CCS (n=69) for internal fixation.

  • 3

    The combined group showed significantly lower femoral neck shortening at 3, 9, and 15 months postoperatively compared to the FNS group.

  • 4

    The combined technique required longer operative time and greater intraoperative blood loss than the FNS alone method.

  • 5

    Surgeons should choose the fixation method based on individual patient circumstances despite the benefits of the combined technique.
