Introduction: Besides the amount of bone mineral assesed through bone mineral density (BMD), studies have shown that neck geometry parameters as hip axis length (HAL) and neck-shaft angle (NSA) could also be reliable parameters to be included in the hip fracture assesement. On the other hand, bone geometry is known to be modified in acromegaly in flat bones, thus hip fracture is not a recognized direct complication in acromegaly neither through bone mass or long bone geometry....
