The aim of this study was to describe the management and associated outcomes of patients sustaining a femoral hip periprosthetic fracture (PPF) in the UK population. This was a multicentre retrospective cohort study including adult patients who presented to 27 NHS hospitals with 539 new PPFs between 1 January 2018 and 31 December 2018. Data collected included: management strategy (operative and nonoperative), length of stay, discharge destination, and details of post-treatment outcomes (reoperation, readmission, and 30-day and 12-month mortality). Descriptive analysis by fracture type was performed, and predictors of PPF management and outcomes were assessed using mixed-effects logistic regression.Aims
Methods
The aims of this study were to determine the cumulative ten-year
survivorship of hips treated for acetabular fractures using surgical
hip dislocation and to identify factors predictive of an unfavourable
outcome. We followed up 60 consecutive patients (61 hips; mean age 36.3
