BACKGROUND: To identify epidemiological aspects of the osteoporotic hip fractures (FOC) in the province of Zamora in 1993, and the basic and standardised accumulative incidence rates amongst the Spanish population. METHODS: 215 FOC cases were studied in the province throughout 1993. 203 were admitted to hospital, 188 of which were treated surgically by the Traumatology Department. The surveyed variables were: sex, age, location (rural, urban), type of (cervical, trochantereal) fracture, surgical procedure (partial prosthesis, Ender stems, others), seasonal factors and average hospital stay. RESULTS: Global accumulative incidence: 100.6 per 100,000 inhabitants. With respect to people over 50, the rate was 246.5 per 100,000 inhabitants (accor...
