Femoral Neck Shaft Angle in Men with Fragility Fractures

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,
