Unable to weight-bear: a common presentation in emergency department that always needs thorough assessment: a case report.

Ansar M Hayat1, Sanjay Kumar.   

Abstract

Femoral neck fracture in young individuals with an unusual mechanism of injury is uncommon. We report a case of grade 3 fracture in young adults without significant trauma. This case reinforces the need for a thorough assessment of the hip joint even after an apparently trivial mechanism of injury.
