Abstract:
Objective To investigate the clinical epidemiological features of femoral neck frac-tures. Methods The clinical data of patients with femoral neck fractures admitted to Third Affiliated Hospital of Hebei Medical University from 2003 to 2007 were retrospectively analyzed. All patients were divided into children group (age < 16 years) , adult group (age ranged from 16 to 60 years) and older group (>60 years). The types of the femoral neck fractures included 31-B1, 31-B2 and 31-B3 according to AO classification. The gender, age, fracture type and injury causes were analyzed. Results A total of 2 064 patients (971 males and 1 093 females) with femoral neck fractures were involved in the study.There were 356, 381, 397, 454 and 476 patients respectively in 2003, 2004, 2005, 2006 and 2007.There were 74 patients (3.59%) in the children group, 979 (47.43%) in the adult group and 1 011 (48.98%) in the older group. There were 960 patients (46. 51%) with type 31-B1 fractures, 860 (41. 67%) with type 31-B2 fractures and 244 (11. 82%) with 31-B3 fractures. Conclusions Form 2003 to 2007, the incidence of femoral neck fracture shows a trend of increase, with the highest incidence in the old persons. The male patients with femoral neck fractures are more than female patients in adult group, while the female patients with femoral neck fractures are less than male patients in older group.The dominant fractures type according to AO classification are type 31-B2 fractures in children and adult groups, but type 31-B1 fractures in older group.
