Effects of Hip Geometry on Fracture Patterns of Proximal Femur
Background: Some studies have previously shown that geometry of proximal femur can affect the probability of fracture and type of fracture. It happens since the geometry of the proximal femur determines how a force is applied to its different parts. In this study, we have compared proximal femur’s geometric characteristics in femoral neck (FNF), intertrochanteric (ITF) and Subtrochanteric (ST...
متن کاملBone density study of the proximal femur after hip arthroplasty with porous-coated implants
Progressive loss of bone mineral density around the femora! component of total hip replacement continues to pose a threat to long term prosthetic survival. A linear study was undertaken to measure bone mineral density on a monthly basis following total hip arthroplasty in 11 male patients. The opposite femur was used as the control measurement. Bone mineral density was unchanged at two mo...
متن کاملBilateral simultaneous oblique MR imaging of the proximal femur.
Oblique axial and oblique coronal MR images parallel to the femoral neck provide more valuable information concerning the proximal femur than orthogonal images. The main disadvantage of the unilateral oblique imaging is that the imaging time is significantly increased when both hips need to be imaged. If the bilateral oblique imaging is performed simultaneously, this increase in imaging time is...
متن کاملDifferences in proximal femur bone density over two centuries.
The incidence of osteoporotic hip fractures in northern Europe has been increasing over the past few decades faster than the rate adjusted for increased life expectancy. One important factor that determines osteoporotic fracture risk is bone density. The restoration of a London church, during which skeletal material dating from 1729 to 1852 was recovered, gave us the opportunity to compare the ...
متن کامل0758 - Fatigue Fracture of the Proximal Femur
INTRODUCTION In the United States, there are over 300,000 hip fractures annually, resulting in over $13 billion in medical costs (1). About 90% of these have been reported to be the consequence of falls (1). The remaining 10% are thought to be the result of fatigue of the bone tissue (spontaneous fracture). Repeated falls may increase fracture risk by affecting the integrity of the bone tissue;...
