Abstract
PHFs have a higher prevalence and incidence in females and in older age, respectively; they are more frequent in the winter months. In addition, male fractures are due to different traumatic events than those in females. A correlation between trauma and PHF pattern was evident only for adults. Some fracture patterns are correlated with different ranges of age in all patients.
