Association between spinopelvic parameters and clinical outcomes following hip fracture: an observational retrospective study
Spinopelvic parameters, particularly sacral slope difference, were associated with key complications after internal fixation of femoral neck fractures. These postoperative measurements may help identify patients who could benefit from closer follow-up, although they should not be interpreted as predictive factors. Prospective studies are required to validate these associations and clarify their clinical relevance.
