Iran is one of the countries with a high incidence of COVID-۱۹ infection.Data on three patients with fragility hip fracture and COVID-۱۹ infection were collected from one hospital located inBadrud, Isfahan, Iran, from March ۱, ۲۰۱۰, to March ۳۰, ۲۰۲۰. All patients were elderly and had fracture induced by fallfrom standing height.All patients (n=۳) were admitted with fragility hip fracture due to low energy trauma. The most common symptoms wereweakness and fatigue. Positive C-reactive protein (CRP) and Leukopenia were the most common abnormal laboratoryevaluations. According to the results, two patients underwent surgical treatment, and one patient had negative reversetranscription-CRP; however, all of them underwent medical treatment for COVID-۱۹ infection.There is a possible relationship between COVID-۱۹ infection and fragility hip fracture in elderly patients. It could beinduced by fatigue and weakness due to COVID-۱۹ disease.
