Acetabular Screw Safe Zones in Total Hip Arthroplasty: Anatomical Evidence and Surgical Implications
IntroductionAcetabular screw fixation is widely used in cementless total hip arthroplasty (THA) to improve initial cup stability. However, screw placement carries a risk of injury to the pelvic vessels, particularly when screws penetrate beyond the acetabular bone.Pelvic vascular injury is an uncomm

Should Cannulated Screws Be Removed After Femoral Neck Fracture Healing? Evidence, Risks, and Surgical Considerations
Femoral neck fractures are commonly treated with internal fixation in younger and physiologically active patients, particularly when preservation of the native femoral head is the treatment goal. Among the available fixation strategies, three parallel cannulated screws arranged in an inv
