[Influence of timing of surgery on complication rates after cemented hemiarthroplasty for treatment of medial femoral neck fractures].

Background: The optimal timing of the implantation of a cemented hemiarthroplasty in the management of displaced medial femoral neck fractures is still the subject of current research. According to the current recommendations, these cases should be surgically treated within 24 h. The aim of this study was to evaluate the impact of the timing of surgery on operation-specific and nonspecific complications, intensive care treatment as well as mortality.
