Medical Cost Analysis of the Osteoporotic Hip Fractures
Türk Osteoporoz Dergisi, 2015 Objective: Osteoporotic hip fractures decrease the life expectancy for 20% about 20-50% of the patients become permanently dependent in terms of walking for the rest of their life. Life expectancy is increasing in Turkey in the last 20 years.

Prevention of fracture at the distal locking site of the gamma nail. A biomechanical study [PDF]
, 1995 To investigate the origin of fractures at the distal locking site of the Gamma nail, we loaded ten paired human cadaver femora fixed with a Gamma nail in torsion until they fractured. When an awl was hammered in to start the

Bisphosphonate-related bilateral atypical femoral fractures : be aware and beware [PDF]
, 2011 Although bisphosphonates have a well established therapeutic role in the prevention of osteoporosis-related fractures, several reports published over the past 5-6 years suggest a possible causative relationship between long-term use of bisphosphonates ...

Automated 3D trabecular bone structure analysis of the proximal femur—prediction of biomechanical strength by CT and DXA [PDF]
, 2009 SummaryThe standard diagnostic technique for assessing osteoporosis is dual X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) measuring bone mass parameters. In this study, a combination of DXA and trabecular structure parameters (acquired by computed tomography [CT]) most ...

External fixation of “intertrochanteric” fractures
Orthopedic Review, 2009 In developing countries, due to limited availability of modern anesthesia and overcrowding of the hospitals with patients who need surgery, high-risk patients with "intertrochanteric" fractures remain unsuita ble for open reduction and internal fixation.The aim of this study was to analyze the results of external fixation of "intertrochanteric ...
