Objective: The objective is to investigate one-year mortality rates following femur osteoporotic fractures, and to investigate factors that are associated with higher mortality rates. Design: A retrospective study was conducted from 2010 to 2021 (11 years) of all patients who presented to King Saud Medical City, Saudi Arabia, and had a fragility fracture of the proximal or distal femur. Patients: One hundred eight patients who sustained a proximal or distal femoral fracture, as a result of low-energy trauma, were included. Results: The majority of our cohort (77.8%) had proximal femoral fractures, whereas only 22.2% had a distal femoral fracture. 55.6% were less than 75 years old, and 44.4% were 75 years or older. All patients had fallen from standing height. Hypertension and diabetes were the most common comorbidities among our cohort at 49.1% and 47.2%, respectively, but neither showed a statistically significant increase in the risk of mortality. When assessing the overall mortality, 21.3% of our patients had passed away. Although this finding was not statistically significant, mortality rates were found to be higher in patients with proximal femoral fractures compared to distal femoral fractures (25% vs. 8.3%, respectively, p=0.095). Patients with a normal bone mass density (BMD) had higher mortality rates as opposed to those with abnormal BMD (p=0.001). Conclusions: Mortality rates are higher in proximal femoral fractures compared to distal femoral fractures. In addition, within our study cohort, patients with normal BMD had higher mortality rates. We recommend prospective studies that compare mortality rates between proximal and distal femoral fractures in patients with osteoporosis, as these studies would provide more accurate data. We also recommend having BMD measured in those patients to avoid further fractures in this patient population.
