Abstract Background: A paucity of knowledge currently exists surrounding the effects of altitude on femur fracture outcomes. The purpose of this study was to determine if altitude plays a significant role in determining the outcome of femoral shaft fractures in the elderly. The authors hypothesized that the additional cardiopulmonary stress of altitude would promote poorer outcomes of those individuals treated at high altitude, especially those individuals whose home residence was located at low altitude.
