Özet
Aim: We aimed to investigate the effect of femoral arterial calcification on mortality in patients who underwent hemiarthroplasty due to hip fracture. Material and methods: In our study, 481 patients who were operated for hip fracture between 01.01.2015 and 01.01.2021 were evaluated retrospectively. Femoral arterial calcification on the fractured side was evaluated in the preoperative pelvic anteroposterior (AP) X-ray, and the patients were divided into two subgroups according to the presence or absence of femoral arterial calcification. The overall survival and first-month and first-year survival of the patients were evaluated. Patients' age, gender, side, fracture type, treatment method, time between fracture and operation date, presence of femoral arterial calcification and type of anesthesia (regional, general) were recorded. Results: Of the 481 patients included in the study, 299 were female and 182 were male, and the mean age was calculated as 80.5. Of the patients, 187 were diagnosed with femoral neck fractures and the remaining 294 with pertrochanteric fractures. It was observed that the mortality rate in the first month after surgery was 58 (12%) for both groups, and the mortality rate in the first year was 173 (35.9%) for both groups. The overall postoperative mortality was calculated as 302 (62.7%) for both groups. Femoral arterial calcification was detected in 191 of 481 patients, and femoral arterial calcification was not observed in the remaining 290 patients. Similarly, when both groups were compared in terms of mortality in the first month after surgery, mortality in the first year and overall mortality rates, no significant difference was found between the groups (p>0.05). Conclusion: In our study we showed that femoral arterial calcification has no effect on mortality in acute hip fractures treated by hemiarthroplasty in people over 65 years of age.
