Spiral fracture of the shaft of the femur, fracture of the neck of the femur.
It holds the head of the femur in place and prevents the lateral and vertical movement of the femur head within the joint.

These were the proximal femur, the distal femur and the acetabular cup region.
Femur Fractures All femur fractures should undergo definitive fixation early once the patient has been fully resuscitated.
In strict usage, femur bone is more proper than femur, as femur refers to thigh, and femur bone refers to the bone within it.
