Patterns of osteocytic endothelial nitric oxide synthase expression in the femoral neck cortex: differences between cases of intracapsular hip fracture and controls.
Evidence indicates that extensive amalgamation of adjacent resorbing osteons is responsible for destroying the microstructural integrity of the femoral neck's inferior cortex in osteoporotic hip fracture. Such osteonal amalgamation is likely to involve a failure to limit excessive resorption, b...
