Highlights • Lower limb amputees, regardless of age are at an increased risk of developing fragility fractures of the neck of femur. • We compared patients with hip fractures and previous lower limb amputation with a cohort of standard hip fracture patients. • Results showed that seventy percent of amputees returned to their previous level of mobility and prior residence. • Mortality in the amputee group was higher but pain and mobility were comparable in both groups.
