Morfología femoral proximal en fracturas de cadera

Abstract

Es frecuente observar como pacientes que han sufrido una fractura de cadera, si se fracturan posteriormente la cadera contralateral, es del mismo tipo que la primera fractura. El objetivo de este trabajo es tratar de relacional la morfología femoral proximal con la producción de un tipo determinado de fractura. Para ello hemos realizado un estudio prospectivo en 50 pacientes mayores de 65 años, sin distinción de sexo, que han ingresado en nuestro servicio por fractura femoral proximal, 25 cervicales y 25 trocantéreas, tras traumatismo de baja energía. Los parámetros medidos en la radiografía anteposterior de la cadera sana han sido la longitud del cuello femoral, el offset, el diámetro de la cabeza femoral, la posición de la cabeza femoral y el ángulo cervicodiafisario. La única variable en la que hemos constatado una diferencia estadísticamente significativa entre ambos tipos de fractura ha sido la longitud del cuello femoral, produciéndose las fracturas cervicales en los pacientes con mayor longitud de éste.

Frecuently when patients suffer a hip fracture, if they fracture the contralateral hip, this is the same type than the firts fracture. The objective of this paper is connect the proximal femoral morphology with the production of one type fracture. We have made a prospective study in 50 patients older than 65 years old, whithout distinction of sex, who entried in our service with proximal femoral fracture neck, the offset, the diameter of the femoral head, the position of the femoral head and the neck-shaft angle. The only different variable statistical significantly between both types of the fracture was the length of the femoral neck, happening cervical fractures in patients with longer femoral neck.
