The femoral neck in children is much stronger than that in adults and can only be fractured by a severe force. It is therefore rare and often associated with severe injury once it takes place. Besides, as the blood supply to the femoral head is precarious, the fracture can lead to a high incidence of post-traumatic avascular necrosis of the femoral head.~(1,2) So, much attention should be paid to the treatment of femoral fractures in children. The authors have successfully cured an old femoral neck fracture of a girl by open reduction and internal fixation with 3 Kirschner wires supplemented by an external fixator across the hip joint and cancellous allograft at the fracture site. The patient has gotten a satisfactory functional recovery of the hip. The femoral neck in children is much stronger than that in adults and can only be fractured by a severe force.
