Introduction: Management of fractures of the proximal femur is always a challenging problem to deal with as they are very frequently associated with multiple injuries, leading to complications. Most of these fractures result as a result of fall in elderly which has been linked to the levels of vitamin D. Vitamin D has a significant role to play in the bone metabolism and neurovascular function. Material and methods: A prospective study of 50 patients with proximal femur fractures, of age more than 50 years was carried out in our hospital. Patients with any concomitant pathology of the hip, liver and renal disease, gastrointestinal disorder were not included. Serum vitamin D levels of these patients were evaluated and compared according to their age and sex. Results: In our study, 92% patients had hypovitaminosis D. Further, we found that there was no significant association of vitamin D levels with age and sex of our patients with proximal femur fractures. Conclusion: We conclude that most of the elderly patients with proximal femur fractures have low vitamin D levels and it may be a definitive risk factor for its occurrence. Hypovitaminosis D is more common in females but we found no significant correlation between vitamin D levels and age and sex of the patients
