dc.description.abstractIntroduction: Hip fractures are an important cause of morbidity and mortality. We aimed to analyze the annual rate and demographic properties of the hip fractured patients who were operated in our university hospital. Materials and Method: We evaluated 923 patients ove a 10-year period. Data on age, sex, injury patterns, and types of fractures were evaluated retrospectively. Results: Sixty-eight (7.4%) of the patients had subtrochanteric femur fractures, 513 (55.5%) had inter-trochanteric femur fractures, and 342 (37.1%) had collum femoris fractures. According to years, in year 2000; 41 hip fractured patients were operated, in 2001; 58, in 2002; 48, in 2003; 63, in 2004; 65, in 2005; 121, in 2006; 111, in 2007; 123, in 2008; 154 and in 2009; 139 hip fractures were operated in our clinic. Mean age of the patients were 70.5 years. Five hundred thirty eight of them were females and 385 of them were males. Six hundred forty five of the injuries were due to low energy, the others were due to high energy injuries. Conclusion: Hip fractures are frequent. In order to decrease the morbidity and mortality of the osteoporotic fractures, fracture prevention strategies should be developed and the patients should be returned to their daily activity levels as soon as possible.en_US
