An untreated fracture of the hip will usually present as a nonunion or a malunion and can present a great challenge to the surgeon. We present our experience with 54 neglected hip fractures, of which 48 had surgical treatment. Malunions were treated with corrective osteotomy.

Injury, 2004
The centenarian population is increasing yet there is little about their morbidity and mortality rates following hip fracture. The aim was to review centenarians treated for proximal femoral fractures in Edinburgh describing treatment outcomes in relation to mortality, walking ability and residential status comparing centenarians with a the more ...

Clinics in Geriatric Medicine, 1993
Recent studies have identified multiple factors contributing to osteoporosis and hip fracture in women. It is now possible to identify individuals who are at increased risk of osteoporotic fractures through bone densitometry, so that appropriate measures for the prevention and restoration of bone loss can be instituted.

For a 50-year old Caucasian woman today, the risk of a hip fracture over her remaining life-time is about 17%. Tomorrow the situation will clearly be worse because the continuous increase in life expectancy will cause a three-fold increase in worldwide fracture incidence over the next 60 years.

Medical Clinics of North America
Hip fractures are a frequent cause of hospitalization in the elderly population and can lead to significant morbidity and mortality. As the population continues to age, the incidence of hip fractures is expected to increase. The internist/hospitalist plays a critical role in the care of this population as many patients have multiple medical ...

Osteoporosis and Hip Fractures
Rheumatic Disease Clinics of North America, 1990Epidemiologic studies have contributed to our understanding of osteoporosis through identification of groups at high risk of fracture and through discernment of factors associated with increased risk of low bone density and fracture. Many of the questions remaining can be addressed only through the use of epidemiologic methods in human populations ...
