Interimplant femoral fractures

Orthopaedics & Traumatology: Surgery & Research, 2022
The number of hip or knee arthroplasties, and internal fixations of the proximal and distal femur, is increasing in proportion to the growing and ageing population, whose life expectancy is lengthening. Thus, fractures of the femur between proximal and distal implants, although rare, are becoming more frequent.

Femoral shaft fracture

British Journal of Hospital Medicine, 2006
The femur is a long bone that extends from the hip to the knee. At its proximal end is the head, neck, greater and lesser trochanters, at the distal end a metaphyseal flare to the medial and lateral condyles. The femoral diaphysis (shaft) is bowed anteriorly. The femur is a tubular bone, which gives it strength to withstand axial loading; this enables

Femoral Neck Fractures

Orthopedic Clinics of North America, 2002
Femoral neck fractures in the geriatric patient continue to represent a therapeutic challenge. Despite advances in surgical techniques and medical care, the risk of nonunion and osteonecrosis after fixation have not changed appreciably in the last 50 years.

Trochanteric Femoral Fractures

Acta chirurgiae orthopaedicae et traumatologiae Cechoslovaca, 2013
At the present time proximal femoral fractures account for 30% of all fractures referred to hospitals for treatment. Our population is ageing, the proportion of patients with post-menopausal or senile osteoporosis is increasing and therefore the number of proximal femoral fractures requiring urgent treatment is growing too.
