Abstract

1. A study of fifty femoral heads removed at operation for primary prosthetic replacement showed a remarkable constancy of the fracture line. 2. It is suggested that two sub-groups of this fracture-subcapital and transcervical-have been described as a result of radiological interpretation without consideration of the effects of varying degrees of rotation.
