Comorbidity burden, management, and in-hospital outcomes in centenarians with proximal hip fracture: a nationwide cohort study (2004-2020).

ABSTRACT: This study analyses comorbidity, surgical management, and complications and their impact on in-hospital outcomes in centenarian hip fracture patients admitted in Spain, 2004-2020.
