Introduction: In the United States, most hip arthroplasties for femoral neck fractures are done with a noncemented stem despite worldwide registry data suggesting that cemented fixation has improved long-term survivorship in patients older than 65 years. We, therefore, evaluated the effect of femoral fixation on the risk of revision, revision for periprosthetic fracture (PPFx), and mortality in patients undergoing hip arthroplasty for femoral neck fractures.

Methods: Seventeen thousand one hundred thirty-eight cases of cemented femoral stems were exactly matched to noncemented fixation cases in a 1:1 fashion based on age, sex, and Charlson Comorbidity Index as reported in the American Joint Replacement Registry.
