dc.description.abstractA fractured neck femur presenting beyond 3 weeks is referred to as a neglected fracture. The current literature is silent about neglected Basicervical fractures. The latter behave more like an intertrochanteric fracture and thus are less prone to complications such as non-union and avascular necrosis. We report a case of an adult male of 42-year-old of age presenting with a 10-month-old history fracture neck of the left femur following high energy injury. We treated the fracture with isolated closed-reduction and internal fixation with PFNA II, as the fracture was basicervical. We have achieved a union in 6 months of surgery. The patient had an excellent functional status 1-year follow-up.en_US
