Prevalence and types of hip and spinal fractures were studied in Yaroslavl citizens aged > 50 years. In 1985 prevalence of hip fractures was 36.41 per 100000, in 1993 - 145, 84 per 100000. Maximal number of the fractures occurred in patients aged over 70 years. Fractures of the thoracic and lumbar spine were registered in 15.00 per 100000 with an increase in 1994. Osteoporotic hip fractures in the population sample occurred less frequently than fractures of the non-typical sites.
