Description

Excerpt from Albany Medical Annals, Vol. 34: Journal of the Alumni Association of the Albany Medical College One-sixth of all fractures are of the femoral neck. One - third of all fractures of the aged are of this class. Nearly every com munity has one or more cripples from this cause. Many of these accidents are fatal. These facts at once announce its impor tance that it is a grave injury and that it has not been suc cessfully treated, as a rule. The question is, are these results due to following blind precedent in treatment or are they unavoidable. From the reports of some two hundred cases treated by the Maxwell Anatomic Method, I have no hesi tancy in saying that there is no more need of bad results in the treatmenteof this than of any other fracture of the leg or thigh, that union should, and under proper treatment will occur in every case which has vitality enough to live four weeks after the injury, and that all such cases living four months will have good serviceable limbs. The treatment is really very simple and can be applied by anyone with mediocre mechanical ability at a cash outlay for equipment of not to exceed fifty cents to one dollar. The cuts illustrating this method used by Fowler and copied in Keen's System of Surgery, are unfortunate, appear complicated and are misleading.
