Intracapsular @entity2249 is treated by anatomical reduction (preferably closed) and cannulated cancellous lag screw fixation. Malunion of these @entity174 have been described in the coronal plane ( @entity14953 or @entity3192 ). We reported a case of young adult @entity1 with displaced intracapsular @entity2249 that had malunited in sagittal plane with callus formation with excellent functional outcome. The radiographs revealed intracapsular @entity2249 right side (Garden type 4 and Pauwel type 3). The @entity1 was operated and closed reduction and internal fixation with three cannulated cancellous screws was performed. The postoperative radiograph revealed a loss of reduction in the lateral view. Due to this technical error, the @entity1 was counselled for revision fixation for which he refused. At 9 months we observed union of the @entity174 in the displaced position by callus formation. Harris hip score at 2 years was 96 that indicate excellent functional outcome and the radiographs did not reveal any evidence of @entity2530 of @entity2738 . We advised revision surgery to our @entity1 as he had increased chances of implant failure and nonunion. However he refused the revision surgery and was continued with the suboptimal reduction. However, the @entity174 united and that too with callus formation, which is not a described phenomenon in neck of femur @entity174 .
