Abstract:
Objective To investigate the epidemiological characteristics of the in-patients with femoral supracondylar fracture in the Third Hospital of Hebei Medical University from 2009 through 2018.Methods The medical imaging computer archiving and transmission system and the medical record inquiry system were used to collect the data of all the in-patients with femoral supracondylar fracture who had been treated from January 2009 through December 2018 in The Third Hospital of Hebei Medical University.Their gender and age distribution,basic sociological data and cause of injury were characterized.The in-patients from January 2009 to December 2013 were assigned into group A while those from January 2004 to December 2018 into group B.The 2 groups were compared to find out the epidemiological characteristics and trends of the in-patients with femoral supracondylar fracture in the 10 years.Results Of the 508 in-patients with femoral supracondylar fracture,279 (54.9％) were male and 229 (45.1％) female.Their age ranged from 1 to 94 years,averaging 44.3 years.The age group from 41 to 50 years accounted for the largest proportion (104 cases,23.9％).In males,the age group from 41 to 50 years accounted for the largest proportion (33.3％,80/279);in females,the age group from 51 to 60 years the largest proportion (30.3 ％,59/229).The proportion of females in the in-patients under 50 years of age (37.1％) was significantly lower than that (62.9％) in the in-patients over 50 years of age (P ＜ 0.05).According to the AO classification,there were 193 cases (38％) of type 33-A1,117 ones (23％) of type 33-A2 and 198 ones (39％) of type 33-A3.There were 270 farmers (53.1％),164 workers (32.4％) and 74 students (14.5％).Most injuries were caused by high energy (56.5％).The age of in-patients with low-energy injury (50.5 ±20.7 years) was significantly higher than that of in-patients with high-energy injury (39.5 ± 19.6 years) (P ＜0.05).The proportions of urban residents (30.0％),patients with low energy injury (37.9％) and type 33-A1 fractures (23.9％) in group A were significantly lower than in group B (43.3％,46.9％ and 32.3％,respectively) (P ＜ 0.05);the age of group A (41.9 ± 21.8 years) was significantly younger than that of group B (45.9 ± 19.9 years) (P ＜0.05);type 33-A3 fractures in group A (46.5％) were significantly more than in group B (36.3％) (P ＜0.05).Conclusions Femoral supracondylar fractures were more common in farmers.Most of the fractures were type 33-A3.The fractures were common in males from 41 to 50 years old and in females from 51 to 60 years old.There were more males than females in the junior patients but more females than males in senior patients.There were more young patients in complex fractures but there were more old patients in simple fractures and there were more very old patients in low-energy injuries.In the past 10 years,the patients with femoral supracondylar fracture increased year by year.Compared with the first 5 years,the late 5 years witnessed significant increases in age of patients and proportions of low-energy injury and simple fracture.
