✦ Synopsis

Femoral neck fractures seldom occur in hips with a significant degree of osteoarthritis Experience with three hitherto undescribed fractures around hip nails suggests that the ridge of new bone which forms on the inferior part of the femoral neck in osteoarthritis increases the strength of the neck, thus decreasing the tendency to neck fractures.

Zusammenfassung In Hiftgelenken mit fortgeschrittener Osteoarthritis treten Oberschenkelhalsfrakturen selten auf Die Erfahrung mit drei bisher nicht beschriebenen Frakturen an der Hiftnagelung la Bt darauf schlie Ben, da B die Oberflache von neuem Knochen, der sich auf dem unteren Teil des Schenkelhalses bei Osteoarthritis bildet, die Festigkeit des Halses erhoht und damit die Tendenz zur Fraktur verringert.

## Abstract Remodeling imbalance in the elderly femoral neck can result in thin cortices and porosity predisposing to hip fracture. Hip osteoarthritis protects against intracapsular hip fracture. By secreting sclerostin, osteocytes may inhibit Wnt signaling and reduce bone formation by osteoblasts.

The late outcome of 562 consecutive femoral neck fractures is presented; 396 were treated with a Thompson hemiarthroplasty, 121 by internal fixation, 4 by primary total hip replacement, and 41 were treated conservatively. Mortality during the first 30 days was 5%. The incidence of primary and second
