Abstract:[Objective] To introduce the surgical technique and preliminary clinical results of Herbert screw via Ganz approach for fixa- tion of femoral head fracture. [Methods] Between January 2015 and September 2021, 10 patients underwent Herbert screw fixation of femo- ral head fractures via Ganz approach. After A 12~20 cm incision was made from about 5cm below the posterior superior iliac spine to the lateral midline of the thigh, longitudinal osteotomy of the greater trochanter was conducted with an oscillating saw from the posterior edge of the vastus lateralis, with 1.5cm greater trochanter bone block in thickness. The greater trochanter block with the gluteus medius and the vas- tus lateralis was pulled forward to expose the joint capsule, then the joint capsule was cut in a "Z" shape along the long axis of the femoral neck towards the lateral joint capsule. The femoral head was dislocated anterolaterally with flexion and external rotation maneuver. After de- bridement of the hip joint to remove blood clot the necrotic tissue, the fracture fragments of the femoral head were identified, reduced and fixed temporarily with Kirschner wires. Two to three countersunk cannulated screws with diameter of 2.4~3.5 mm were used to fix the femo- ral head bone fragments according to their size, with the screw tail buried under the cartilage. The femoral head was reduced by internal ro- tation and the greater trochanter osteotomy was fixed with two cortical screws. [Results] All patients had operation performed successfully with operation time of (139.5±30.5) min and intraoperative blood loss of (310.0±213.2) ml, and resumed full weight-bearing activity in 3~6 months after surgery. At 6 months after surgery, hip function was marked as excellent in 5 cases, good in 4 cases, and fair in 1 case accord- ing to Thompson-Epstein criteria. [Conclusion] Ganz approach for countersunk screw fixation of femoral head fracture dose fully expose the acetabulum and femoral head, and facilitate to reduce the fracture under direct vision, with low complication rate and good curative ef- fect.
