摘要
Occult fractures of the femoral neck can be subtie or even undetectable on plain radiographs. Yet, untreated, the morbidity of this fracture significantly increases. This report discusses the clinical and radiologic findings seen in occult fractures of the femoral neck. It also discusses the role of tomograms, bone scan, computed tomography, and magnetic resonance imaging in further dellneating this entity. © 1992.
