Analysis of Intramedullary Nail and Prosthetic Reconstruction After Surgical Treatment of Bone Metastases of Proximal Femur

The investigators will collect data of patients treated surgically for impending or pathological fracture of the proximal femur due to bone metastases between 01/01/2000 and 31/12/2023 with IMN or THA or HHA or MegaTHA or Mega. After pre-screening the databases of the respective sites, the investigators expect to find approximately a total of 600 patients. A review will be made from the medical records, radiological imaging, and histological data of partecipants.
