Seasonality of Periprosthetic Femur Fractures in 12,700 Primary and Revision Total Hip Arthroplasties
2017, Journal of ArthroplastyCitation Excerpt :Among the 165 periprosthetic femur fractures after primary THAs, there was no statistically significant seasonal variation, thus disproving the study hypothesis. Current literature on seasonal variation in hip fractures is unable to reach a consensus on the effect of meteorological season on the incidence of hip fracture [38–43]. Notably, Burget et al [39] studied 1720 proximal femur fractures in patients >60 years of age and found no seasonal variation in the number of fractures.
