Risk factors for hip fractures: the role of femoral and acetabular morphology in predicting proximal femur fracture types
The study identified key variables associated with proximal femur fracture localisation. Morphological parameters such as HRV, FHEI, canal width, and LCEA, as well as BMI for subtrochanteric fractures, significantly influence fracture localisation, highlighting their importance for personalised risk assessment and preventive strategies.
