Introduction: Proximal femoral geometry plays an important role in the prediction of hip fractures as it provides mechanical strength to the femur. Objective: To find out the relationship between body mass index (BMI) and femoral morphometry in the study population. Methods: This is an observational cross-sectional study in 168 patients where parameters such as hip axis length(HAL) and femoral neck-shaft angle(FNSA) were measured by using a dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry scan. BMI was calculated by taking the weight and height of the patients. The relationship of proximal femoral morphometry with different groups of BMI (Normal, Pre-obese and Obese group)has been studied by using the Karl Pearson correlation coefficient (r). Results: The mean age, height, weight, HAL, FNSA, and BMI of the study population were found to be 58.72 years, 160.15 cm, 64.38 kg, 104.14 mm, 128.51__ampersandsigndeg;, and 26.89 kg/mt2 respectively. In the normal group, the BMI has a low level of positive correlation with HAL (r=0.484) and a moderate level of correlation with FNSA (r=0.413). In the pre-obese group, the BMI has a low level of positive correlation with HAL and FNSA (r=0.404 __ampersandsignamp; 0.473 respectively). In the obese group, BMI has a moderate level of positive correlation with HAL and FNSA (r=0.501 __ampersandsignamp; 0.507 respectively). Conclusion: The present study established a positive correlation between proximal femoral morphometry and BMI.
