A total of 82 of 130 patients who were operated with partial hip arthroplasty for hip fractures reached Fatih University Hospital (new name of Turgut Özal University). The mean follow-up time was 37.76 months and the mean age of the 82 patients was 78.99. Of the total number of patients, 25 were men and 57 were women. A total of 49 patients were alive and 33 were dead. The mean postoperative survival of these patients was 31.1 months. The mean total score of the Oxford hip score was 50.17. There was no effect of operation age, sex, hypertension, diabetes mellitus, renal diseases, dementia, and chronic obstructive lung disease on the Oxford hip score. Survival was not affected by the result of the Oxford hip score. The total Oxford hip score was less in patients who had heart disease, but it was not significant statistically.
