Objective: To evaluate the biomechanical behavior of a metaphyseal stem specifically designed for the fixation of Pauwels type-III femoral neck fractures using finite-element analysis.
Methods: Three different constructions were studied: the dynamic hip screw with a superior anti-rotation screw (DHS + ARS), multiple cannulated screws in an inverted triangle configuration (ASNIS), and the Metaphyseal Nailing System (MNS), a new implant developed by the authors. Vertical and total displacement, localized and total maximum and minimum principal, and the Von Mises peak stresses were evaluated.

Objective: In this study, we aimed to evaluate the biomechanical behavior of three fixations for Pauwels type III fractures (sliding hip screw (SHS), L-shaped, and L-shaped with medial plate), by finite element analysis (FEM).
Methods: Three internal fixators were developed to treat Pauwels type III fracture by finite elements: SHS; L-shaped; and L-shaped with medial plate. Under the same conditions, localized and total vertical fracture displacement, maximum and minimum principal and von Mises stresses were evaluated.
