Effect of three cannulated compression screws combined with an obstructing screw on the biomechanical performance of pauwels type III femoral neck fractures: a finite element analysis.

Background: Obstructing screws (OS) are an effective surgical method for treating Pauwels type III femoral neck fractures. This study compared the mechanical properties of various surgical techniques for treating such fractures using finite element analysis.

Methods: An ideal finite element model of the femur was established based on computed tomography scans of healthy individuals.
