GGPS1 Mutation and Atypical Femoral Fractures with Bisphosphonates [PDF]

New England Journal of Medicine, 2023
Atypical femoral fractures have been associated with long-term bisphosphonate treatment.1,2 However, the underlying mechanisms remain obscure. We studied three sisters who had atypical femoral fractures after receiving various oral bisphosphonates for 6 ...

Subsequent ipsi- and contralateral femoral fractures after intramedullary nailing of a trochanteric or subtrochanteric fracture: a cohort study on 2012 patients [PDF]

BMC Musculoskeletal Disorders, 2022
Background The literature is inconclusive as to whether an intramedullary nail changes the distribution of a subsequent ipsi- or contralateral fracture of the femur. We have compared the incidence, localisation, and fracture pattern of subsequent femoral

Femoral Neck Shaft Angle in Men with Fragility Fractures [PDF]

Journal of Osteoporosis, 2011
Introduction. Femoral neck shaft angle (NSA) has been reported to be an independent predictor of hip fracture risk in men. We aimed to assess the role of NSA in UK men. Methods. The NSA was measured manually from the DXA scan printout in men with hip (62,

Unstable Pertrochanteric Femoral Fractures

Journal of Orthopaedic Trauma, 2005
Fractures in the trochanteric region of the femur are classified as AO/OTA 31-A, as they are extracapsular (). This report analyzes the relatively rare 31-A3 fracture, which has also been referred to as an "intertrochanteric femur fracture with subtrochanteric extension," "reverse obliquity intertrochanteric femur fracture," "unstable intertrochanteric

Atypical femoral fractures [PDF]

CLINICAL CASES IN MINERAL AND BONE METABOLISM, 2013
Bisphosphonates (BPs) represent the most widely used therapy for osteoporosis. Recently, a relationship between long-term treatment with BPs and a subset of atypical femoral fractures (AFFs) from below the lesser trochanter to the sovracondilar line has been described.

Hip Fractures after Intramedullary Nailing Fixation for Atypical Femoral Fractures: Three Cases [PDF]

, 2022
Secondary hip fractures (SHFs) rarely occur after intramedullary nailing (IMN) fixation without femoral neck fixation for atypical femoral fractures (AFFs).

A Periprosthetic Femoral Fracture with Characteristics of Atypical Femoral Fracture [PDF]

Case Reports in Orthopedics, 2019
Although the definition of atypical femoral fracture (AFF) excludes periprosthetic femoral fracture (PFF), the number of reports about PFF with characteristics of AFF is increasing. We present the case of such a fracture in this report. An 87-year-old woman who underwent bipolar hip arthroplasty for a femoral neck fracture 38 months prior reported left

Subtrochanteric fracture after femoral neck system of femoral neck fractures: a report of four cases

BMC Musculoskeletal Disorders, 2023
Background The femoral neck system (FNS) is commonly used for internal fixation of femoral neck fractures and has shown promising results. However, we have observed cases of peri-implant subtrochanteric femur fractures associated with the use of FNS at ...

Comparative evaluation of intramedullary interlocking nailing and end-threaded pinning (positive profile) for fixation of femoral fractures in dogs

Indian Journal of Animal Sciences, 2020
The study included 14 cases of femur fracture in which two different techniques namely intramedullary interlocking nailing (IILN) (group-I; 9 cases) and end threaded pinning (ETP) (group-II; 5 cases) were used for fixation of the fracture.
