Two patients with iatrogenic femoral neck fracture following intramedullary fixation of the diaphyseal fractures are reported. This is a rare complication of intramedullary nailing (IMN), has poor prognosis and is preventable. It seems that choosing the piriformis fossa as the entry point, increased neck-shaft angle (coxa valga) and excessive nail insertion increased the risk of the iatrogenic neck fracture.
