Urgent Hip Fracture Surgery in Istanbul
A hip fracture demands surgery within 24–48 hours. Our trauma team operates around the clock — internal fixation or hemiarthroplasty, followed by early mobilisation.
Hip Fractures in the Elderly
Hip fractures occur most often in osteoporotic elderly patients after a fall. They are a medical emergency — delayed surgery beyond 48 hours significantly increases mortality, pneumonia, and pressure sore risk.
Surgery type depends on fracture pattern and patient fitness: internal fixation for stable fractures, hemiarthroplasty or total hip replacement for displaced femoral neck fractures. Intensive post-operative rehabilitation starts within 24 hours.
- 90% of hip fractures are caused by low-energy falls in osteoporotic patients
- Surgery within 24–48 hours significantly reduces mortality
- Cemented hemiarthroplasty is the standard for displaced femoral neck fractures in the elderly
- Post-operative physiotherapy begins day 1 — early mobilisation is critical

Emergency Hip Fracture Management
Internal Fixation (DHS / IMN)
Dynamic hip screw or intramedullary nail for stable intertrochanteric fractures — preserves the native hip joint.
Hemiarthroplasty
Replacement of the femoral head only — faster and safer for displaced neck fractures in low-demand elderly patients.
Total Hip Arthroplasty
Both ball and socket replaced — preferred for active patients with displaced femoral neck fractures and longer life expectancy.
