Resumo
Objective: To determine, through bone histomorphometry in femoral neck, whether there are differences in the cancellous bone of the proximal femur from female patients over 60 years old who had femoral neck fracture and similar patients who did not have such fracture. Methods: We analyzed the trabecular part of the femur of 13 female patients, aged over 60 years old, by the bone histomorphometry method. Seven of these patients had femoral neck fracture. All of them were subjected to hip arthroplasty. Results: Bone densitometry showed no significant difference. There was no significant difference on the average thickness of the trabecular bone (124.38 mu m versus 147.09 mu m). The number of bone trabeculae was lower (1.52, versus 1.88) and the separation between them was larger (541,19 mu m versus 391,14 mu m) in the fracture group. Conclusion: A difference in histomorphometric parameters of cancellous bone of the femur neck was observed among patients who had fractures as compared to patients who had not.
