Ao classification proximal femur fractures- An adequate classification of proximal femur fractures from Xray images is crucial for the treatment choice and the patients' clinical outcome We rely on the commonly used AO system, which describes a hierarchical knowledge tree classifying the images into types and subtypes according to the fracture's location and complexity In this paper, we propose a The majority of proximal femur fractures (PFFs) affects the elderly as more than three quarters of PFFs occur in patients over the age of 75 in Germany While around 13 million hip fractures were reported globally in 1990 , the number is estimated to range between 73 and 213 million by 50 For elderly patients, a PFF often represents a lifechanging event,
