Prediction of survival, second fracture, and functional recovery following the first hip fracture surgery in elderly patients

► We investigated predictable factors of mortality and morbidity of the first hip fracture surgery in elderly patients. ► Advanced age, cancer, a prior fracture history, and a solitary life were associated with mortality. ► A fall within 1 year of surgery and a solitary life were associated with second fracture. ► Malignancy and cognitive impairment were associated with functional recovery.
