Hip fractures: femoral neck versus trochanteric fractures, baseline characteristics and clinical outcomes
Based on this study, elderly patients with TF exhibit a comparatively inferior baseline status in comparison to patients with FNF. However, patients with TF have lower incidence of postoperative complications. No differences in 30-day and one-year mortality rates were observed between patients with the two types of proximal femoral fractures.
