Among 224 patients aged 60 years of older with hip fractures, 30 underwent nonoperative treatment. The functional and survival prognoses of these patients were investigated and compared with patients who underwent surgery. The operated and nonoperated groups did not differ in age on injury, dementia status and in-hospital mortality. However, the nonoperated patients had a higher risk on admission and poorer functional prognosis than did the operated patients. Furthermore, within the nonoperated group, patients with dementia had significantly poorer walking ability than those without.
