  2. Proximal femoral fracture surgery is associated with revision surgery in humans After surgery for proximal femoral fracture (3/200 patients (1.5%) required revision beyond the second year).

    “revision surgery was only required in 3/200 patients (1.5%) beyond the second year of that surgery.”
