A study evaluating persistence of excess mortality following individual non-hip fractures observed excess mortality following all proximal and lower leg fractures at 10 years of follow up. One-year excess mortality was 20-25% after femur or pelvis, 10% following vertebral, 5-10% following humerus, rib or clavicle, and 3% following lower leg fractures. The study was published in the Journal of Clinical Endocrinology & Metabolism.
