Abstract

Traumatic lesions of the hip are one of the most important aspects of the traumatic surgery, because they are very frequently, and because they take place in advanced-aged subjects: the higher morbimortality nosologic group. On that base, we carried out a longitudinal, descriptive, observacional, epidemiologic study in patients entering the hospitals “José R. López Tabrane”, of Matanzas, and “Iluminado Rodríguez”, of Jagüey Grande with hip fractures during the period November 2001 and march 2006. Our universe was constituted of 129 patients, receiving surgical treatment.
