Hip Fracture Online Journals Open Access

Most hip fractures occur in one among two locations on the os longum that extends from your pelvis to your knee (femur):

The femoral neck. This area is situated within the upper portion of your femur, slightly below the ball part (femoral head) of the ball-and-socket joint.

The intertrochanteric region. This region may be a little farther down from the hip , within the portion of your upper femur that juts outward.
The type of surgery you've got generally depends on the where and the way severe the fracture is, whether the broken bones aren't properly aligned (displaced), and your age and underlying health conditions. the choices include: Internal repair using screws, Total hip replacement and Partial hip replacement.
