Trends in Orthopaedic Surgery on Patients 90 Years Old and Older 2014-2023.
There is an increase in volume of orthopaedic surgery on patients ≥90 years old over the last decade between 2014-2023, the majority of which were performed on the hip and pelvis and for fractures or dislocations. As older adults ≥90 years old continue to increase in the population, we project the surgical volume will continue to grow and place a large financial burden on the US healthcare system.
