    This study evaluated a dual-optimization strategy for treating valgus-impacted femoral neck fractures in elderly patients.

  • 2

    The reduction-assisted group showed longer operative times but superior technical precision compared to the in-situ freehand group.

  • 3

    Radiological outcomes indicated effective deformity correction and higher screw placement accuracy in the reduction-assisted group.

  • 4

    At follow-up, the reduction-assisted group had significantly less femoral neck shortening and higher Harris Hip Scores.

  • 5

    The reduction-assisted group also exhibited lower incidences of femoral head necrosis, non-union, and fixation failure.
