Post-operative periprosthetic femoral fractures in England: Patient profiles and short-term outcomes
This is the first national description of the burden of adverse outcomes for people with POPFF in England, of whom a large proportion require ongoing specialist support. Fewer POPFF cases follow prior hip fracture surgery than elective joint replacement, but these patients face higher risks of worse outcomes. With an expected increasing incidence of POPFF, this may have considerable health service implications.
