Change in 1-year mortality after hip fracture surgery over the last decade in a European population.

Objective: There are scarce data on the mortality after hip fracture surgery for patients treated in the most recent years. The objective of this study was to analyze whether the overall initiatives introduced over the last decade for elderly patients with hip fractures had a positive impact on the 1-year mortality.

Methods: Patients treated during 2010-2012 were compared with patients treated during 2018-2020 for all-cause 1-year mortality.

Prospective comparison of functional outcomes of primary reverse shoulder arthroplasty for acute fractures versus rotator cuff deficiencies.

Aims: The purpose of this study was to determine whether there were long-term differences in outcomes of reverse shoulder arthroplasty (RSA) undertaken for acute proximal humeral fracture versus rotator cuff deficiency with a minimum follow-up of five years.

Methods: This was a prospective cohort study comparing 67 patients with acute complex proximal humeral fracture and 64 patients with irreparable rotator cuff deficiency who underwent primary RSA. In the fracture group, there were 52 (77.

A Comparison Study of the Outcomes of Ceramic-on-Ceramic Total Hip Arthroplasty in Young vs Older Patients: A Minimum 10-Year Follow-Up Prospective Matched Study.

Background: The purpose of this study is to analyze the outcome and prosthesis survival in patients aged between 20 and 40 years who received a cementless total hip arthroplasty (THA) with a minimum follow-up of 10 years compared to older patients.

Methods: Prospective matched comparative study was conducted between 94 young patients with mean age of 37.2 (range 22-40) years and 90 older patients with mean age of 64.
