Objective To summarize the research progress of femoral neck system (FNS) in the treatment of femoral neck fracture in young and middle-aged patients. Methods  The literature on FNS at home and abroad in recent years was extensively reviewed, and the results of mechanical and clinical studies on FNS were summarized based on clinical experience. Results  FNS has good mechanical stability, which can reduce complications such as femoral neck shortening, internal fixation failure, and varus caused by mechanical instability. At present, FNS is mainly selected for comparison with cannulated compression screws and dynamic hip screws in clinical research. The results show that FNS has the advantages of minimally invasive, short operation time, less intraoperative fluoroscopy, earlier postoperative weight-bearing and fracture healing, and better hip function recovery. Conclusion  As a new internal fixator, FNS has achieved satisfactory results in the current research. FNS has good mechanical advantages, which is beneficial to fracture healing and the recovery of hip joint function after operation. However, whether FNS can reduce the incidence of nonunion and osteonecrosis of the femoral head remains to be further clarified.
