• Resumo em Inglês: Introduction: In recent years, there have been a number of changes in life cycles that have resulted in increased life expectancy, with a decline in mortality that has benefited people from all demographic regions. Parallel to the demographic changes, there are changes in morbidity and mortality patterns characterized by the increase of chronic-degenerative diseases and factors that may result in dependence and lower quality of life, especially the fall of the height and femur fracture. Objective: To describe the clinical and surgical aspects of the elderly with femoral fracture treated at a military hospital of the Federal District between 2006 and 2017. Method: The design of this research is an epidemiological investigation of the descriptive retrospective type of case series. The sample consisted of records of the elderly with femur fracture due to falls of the same height, attended at the hospital between 2006 and 2017. Data collection was done at the institution, using the records on clinical and surgical data available in the medical records. Patients, from their hospitalization to the end, using a data collection instrument developed by the author. Data analysis was performed using the Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS) software version 22.0, with a significance level of 5% (p <0.05). The descriptive statistics were performed using the distribution measures (mean, standard deviation - SD, absolute and relative frequency), considering the variables of interest in order to characterize the sample. For the inferential analyzes of the clinical and surgical data, non-parametric chi-square. Results: the sample consisted of 31 medical records of the elderly with mean age of 79 old. The number of fractures was higher in the elderly with 80 years of age or older (51.6%). It was observed that the fractures prevailed in women (80.6%), who declare themselves to be white (71%) from the Southeast region, living in the Federal District, urban region and married. There was a predominance of transtrochanteric fractures of the left femur treated with osteosynthesis and SAH as comorbidities and use of antihypertensive as a medication for continuous use. Patients with ASA II were more frequent. As to the number of intercurrences, the majority of the elderly had 5 to 9 intercurrences. The variables that had a positive correlation with the hospitalization time were DM and ASA. Conclusion: It was verified that the characterization of the patients analyzed follows a pattern of clinical diagnosis and age distribution with predominance of fractures in elderly, female and white declared elderly.
