The purpose of this study is to analyze and verify the mechanical structure of the proximal femur.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title><jats:p>A total of 375 patients with intertrochanteric fractures were imaged using computed tomography (CT) scans. Patients were grouped according to age and sex. Cortical and medullary cavity parameters (cortical thickness [CTh], cortical mean density [CM], upper\u2010lower diameter length [ULL], and medial\u2010lateral diameter length [MLL]) were measured at eight planes. Six proximal femoral finite element models of different sexes and ages were constructed. To verify the measurement results, Abaqus was used to implement the force load to describe the von Mises stress distribution, and the maximum von Mises stress values of each wall of the proximal femur were compared.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Results<\/jats:title><jats:p>The CTh values of the lower and upper walls were higher than those of the anterior and posterior walls of the femoral neck (<jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\u2009&lt;\u20090.05). The CM values of the lower and upper walls were higher than those of the anterior and posterior walls of the subcephalic and middle femoral neck (<jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\u2009&lt;\u20090.05). The ULL value gradually increased from the subcephalic region to the bottom (<jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\u2009&lt;\u20090.05). The CTh and CM values of the medial and lateral walls were higher than those of the anterior and posterior walls in the femoral trochanteric region (<jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\u2009&lt;\u20090.05). The MLL value decreased gradually from the plane 20\u2009mm above the upper edge to that 20\u2009mm below the vertex of the femoral lesser trochanter (<jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\u2009&lt;\u20090.05). The von Mises stress was concentrated on the upper and lower walls of the femoral neck and on the medial and lateral walls of the femoral trochanteric region. The maximum von Mises stress values of the upper and lower walls were higher than those of the anterior and posterior walls of the femoral neck. The maximum von Mises stress values of the medial and lateral walls were higher than those of the anterior and posterior walls in the femoral trochanteric region, except for the plane 20\u2009mm above the upper edge of the femoral lesser trochanter.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title><jats:p>The bone mass of the proximal femur presented a triangular high\u2010modulus distribution, which bore the main stress of the proximal femur.
