Diagrams of the five models. PIIT represents femoral neck fracture fixed using three cannulated screws in a parallel, inverted, isosceles triangular configuration; PIIT+ 4HI represents PIIT combined with a four-hole buttress plate and proximal screw; PIIT+ 4HI-1 represents PIIT combined with a four-hole buttress plate without a proximal screw; PIIT+6HI and PIIT+6HI-1 represents PIIT combined with a six-hole buttress plate with and without a proximal screw, respectively
