Brueckmann FR. Clin Orthop. (251):168-70, 1990 Feb. Seven different reduction techniques have been tested in the treatment of displaced femoral neck fractures using the fracture table. Wellmerling's technique is preferred because of its utility, predictable results, and flexibility in treatment alternatives. [References: 12]
