The goal of this clinical trial is to learn whether the surgical approach used for hemiarthroplasty can improve clinical and functional outcomes in adults with displaced femoral neck fractures.

The main questions it aims to answer are:

• Does the direct anterior approach (DAA) result in superior postoperative functional recovery compared with the direct lateral approach (DLA)?
• Are mortality, complications, hospital utilization, and readmission rates different between the two surgical approaches? Researchers will compare hemiarthroplasty performed using the direct anterior approach to hemiarthroplasty performed using the direct lateral approach to determine whether surgical approach influences postoperative function, complications, and survival.

Participants will:

• Undergo hemiarthroplasty for displaced femoral neck fracture using a randomly assigned surgical approach (DAA or DLA)
• Complete a baseline functional assessment using the Activities of Daily Living (ADL) questionnaire before surgery
• Have perioperative data collected during hospitalization, including laboratory values, operative details, blood loss, transfusions, analgesic use, complications, length of stay, and in-hospital mortality
• Attend follow-up clinic visits at 6 weeks and 3 months after surgery
• Complete postoperative functional assessment using the Harris Hip Score at both follow-up visits
• Have demographic data, complications, readmissions, and mortality monitored through review of electronic medical records

Inclusion Criteria:

Adults aged 18 years or older Patients undergoing hemiarthroplasty (partial hip replacement) during the study period at Meir Medical Center Ability to provide informed consent for participation in the study

Exclusion Criteria:

Revision surgery performed during the index hospitalization Inability to complete postoperative follow-up Inability to provide informed consent (e.g., dementia or presence of a legal guardian) Pre-injury mobility status of bedbound or wheelchair-bound Polytrauma patients Prior fixation or arthroplasty of the contralateral hip within the previous year

The study population will consist of adult patients undergoing hemiarthroplasty for displaced femoral neck fracture at Meir Medical Center during the study period.
