Abstract

Background: Studies have shown that the clinical efficacy of TBS (Trabecular Bone Score) of DXA in hip fracture patients. This study aimed to investigate the difference of TBS in trochanteric fractures and femoral neck fractures in hip fracture patients.

Methods: Data were derived from the University affiliated hospital, the participants included 249 patients aged 60 years or older who were available of TBS prescribe by DXA. 89 femoral neck fracture patients and 160 trochanteric fractures were enrolled. Spine T- score, hip T- score (neck), hip T- score (total), lowest T- score in hip, L1-L4 TBS. TBS Z-score, L1-L4 BMD(g/cm²), L1-L4 BMD T-score, L1 TBS, L1 BMD(g/cm2), L1 BMD T-score, L2 TBS, L2 BMD(g/cm2), L2 BMD T-score, L3 TBS, L3 BMD(g/cm2), L3 BMD T-score, L4 TBS, L4 BMD(g/cm2), L4 BMD T-score, lowest TBS score, highest TBS score were analyzed.

Results: Demographic data (age, sex, height, weight, BMI) and T-score of hip and spine in two groups showed no significant difference. TBS in spine in two groups revealed higher TBS in femoral neck fracture groups.

Conclusion: There is no difference of age, sex, and BMI in two groups. The T-score was not statistically significant in comparison of bone quality in hip fracture groups. The TBS in femoral neck fracture group is higher than trochanteric fractures. The TBS in spine can be more valuable than T-score of DXA for the proper evaluation of bone quality in the hip fracture patients.
