Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Fractures of the upper femur (EFSF) represent a major public health problem in the elderly. Approximately 1.6 million patients are victims each year of an EFSF and this number is increasing as a result of the aging of the population.

In a recent Amiens retrospective study the mortality was estimated to be 22.5% at 1 year of the fracture. In surviving patients, the impact on loss of autonomy and degradation of quality of life is considerable.

The reduction of the incidence of post-operative complications includes the identification of risk factors.

No prospective study in Amiens has investigated the mortality and the study of the variables involved in the prognosis and long-term mortality of these patients.

Eligibility Criteria

Check the participation requirements, including inclusion and exclusion rules, age limits, and whether healthy volunteers are accepted.

Inclusion Criteria

* All the patients operated from a fracture of traumatic origin of the ESF to the emergency block at the CHU of Amiens
* Patients transferred to the CHU after being cared for in another structure will be included.
* If a patient successively presents a fracture of each upper extremity of the femur outside of a surgical resumption, two inclusions will be realized

Exclusion Criteria

* Do not include non-traumatic fractures of the upper end of the femur (pathological fractures: cancer, for example)
* Fractures of the upper end of the femur associated with polytrauma will not be included.
