Abstract

The objective was to assess mortality and ambulatory ability for elderly patients over 90 years of age with femoral neck fractures treated surgically. From January 1998 to March 1999, 60 patients aged over 80 years were chosen for the study. The patients had a mean age of 87.1 years. The mean follow-up period was 12.9 months. The patients were classified into three groups according to age: group A (80–84 years old), group B (85–89 years old) and group C (over 90 years old). The rates of recovered postoperative walking ability were 72.2% (13/18) of group A, 65.2% (15/23) of group B and 84.2% (16/19) of group C. These patients were followed up until death or for at least one year. The overall mortality rates were 11.1% (2/18) of group A, 17.4% (4/23) of group B and 10.5% (2/19) of group C.
