dc.description.abstractBackground: A population-based study delineating the epidemiologic, clinical, and treatment characteristics of femoral neck fractures (FNFs) in elderly patients has not yet been conducted in Turkey. In this nationwide study, the epidemiologic, clinical, and treatment characteristics of patients aged ⩾65 years with FNFs who underwent osteosynthesis, hemiarthroplasty (HA), or total hip arthroplasty (THA) were examined. Methods: Patients aged ⩾65 years with FNFs were identified in this retrospective, nationwide study. Then, the patients who underwent osteosynthesis or total/hemiarthroplasty from 2016 to 2021 were included. All the outcome variables were collected from patient medical records stored in the e-health database of the Republic of Turkey Ministry of Health. Results: A total of 83,789 FNFs treated surgically were analysed. Osteosynthesis was performed on 21,130 FNFs (25.2%), HA on 56,378 FNFs (67.3%), and THA on 6281 FNFs (7.5%). From 2016 to 2021, the overall revision rates for THA and HA were 14.6% (914/5367 patients) and 5.9% (3301/53,077 patients), respectively. The rate of revision prosthetic surgery was significantly higher after THA than after HA (p < 0.001). Mortality rates at 1 year were 25% (n = 5293) for osteosynthesis, 14.7% (n = 924) for THA, and 71.1% (n = 40,109) for HA (p = 0.001). The multivariate model of 1-year postoperative mortality revealed 7 independent predictors: male sex (odds ratio [OR] 1.694; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.640–1.751), use of a cemented femoral stem (OR 1.182; 95% CI, 1.117–1.250), acute myocardial infarction (AMI) (OR 1.317; 95% CI, 1.240–1.400), cerebrovascular accident (CVA) (OR 1.379; 95% CI, 1.333–1.425), chronic liver disease (CLD) (OR 2.188; 95% CI, 1.802–2.489), diabetes mellitus (DM) (OR, 1.160; 95% CI, 1.122–1.200), and age >81.50 years (OR 2.654; 95% CI, 2.569–2.742). Conclusions: Our study suggested that a hemiarthroplasty is the most common treatment modality for FNF followed by osteosynthesis (25.2%) and THA (7.5%) in Turkey. Revision rates after THA for FNF are concerning. The 1-year mortality rates are highest after HA, followed by osteosynthesis and THA. Male sex, cemented fixation, CVA, CLD, liver failure, DM, and age >81.50 are the independent predictive factors for postoperative 1-year mortality in this specific group of patients.
