Comparing surgical fixation for hip and thigh bone fractures in young adults
Part of Bones, joints & muscles, Injuries & trauma clinical trials.
This trial compares different ways of surgically fixing two common thigh bone fractures that happen together (hip and shaft) in younger adults. The goal is to find the best method for healing and restoring function after injury.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 18 and 55 years old.
- The fracture happened within the last week.
- You have fractures of both the neck of the thigh bone (near the hip) and the shaft of the same thigh bone.
- You do not have a severe open fracture (grade III), where the bone comes through the skin.
- You do not have uncontrolled diabetes, kidney disease, or neurological problems.

This trial studies whether using two implants works better than one to stabilize a break in the lower part of the thigh bone. It focuses on people who can get surgery quickly after arriving at the hospital and who can be followed for a full year.
This trial tests whether a new surgical method helps hip fractures heal better in adults aged 18 to 64. It uses special X-rays to track how the bone moves over time.
This trial is testing whether using two metal implants to fix a broken thigh bone (near the knee) works better than using just one. It aims to help patients with certain types of fractures that need surgery.
This trial tests whether one surgical technique (for stabilizing the upper-arm bone using a rod placed inside the bone) works better than another for adult humeral shaft fractures. It may help find the approach that leads to better healing and recovery.
This trial compares using one implant versus two implants to fix a broken thigh bone near the knee in older adults or those with certain health conditions. It aims to see which approach helps people heal better and recover more quickly.
This study is testing how well two surgical implants work for fixing certain types of broken thigh bone (distal femur) in people aged 55 and older. The goal is to find the best way to help you heal and get back to your daily activities.
