As fracturas da extremidade superior do fémur são um importante factor de morbilidade e mortalidade após os 60 anos. Várias causas contribuem para a sua incidência. As consequências que delas advêm são extremamente graves e incapacitantes, bem como originam elevados custos na economia nacional. Neste trabalho avalia-se a morbilidade e mortalidade causada por fracturas da extremidade superior do fémur numa população hospitalar, bem como os vários factores que possam ter influência no processo. Pretende-se valorizar a importância da prevenção, do tratamento precoce e da recuperação eficaz desta patologia. Abstract Hip fractures are associated with high morbidity and mortality over the age of 60. Several causes are contributive to their incidence. The consequences of these fractures are extremely severe, carrying high economic costs. We have studied the morbidity and mortality caused by hip fractures in a hospital population and the several factors that may have influence on the process. We intend to underline the value of prevention, early treatment and adequate rehabilitation in this pathology.
