Excerpt from The Chicago Medical Journal and Examiner, Vol. 38: January to June, 1879 Fracture of the neck of the femur is a subject of special interest to all surgeons who have had cases under treatment. Having had my attention called to this subject, I addressed a circular to quite a large number of the older practitioners, asking for reports of such cases as may have come under their observa tion. In response I received reports, more or less in detail, of 163 cases which are embodied in the following tabulated statement. One hundred and three of these cases are reported as having occurred within the capsule, sixteen as being both intra and extra capsular, thirty-six as extra capsular, one as a separation of the epiphysis, and seven as uncertain.
