Background: The content of macroelements in bones varies with age and depends on sex. The aim of the study was to evaluate the content of macroelements and its correlation with age and sex in the femoral bone obtained during total hip arthroplasty. Methods: In the 86 patients, the content of macroelements (Ca, P, Mg, and Na) in the femoral head and neck (cancellous and cortical bone) was assessed by means of the inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectrometry analytical technique (ICP-OES). Results: There was a decrease in the content of macroelements in the cortical bone with age in the women in the 51–60 years (statistically significant: −0.59 for Ca, −0.65 for P) and over 70 years age groups (correlation not statistically significant: −0.29 for Ca, −0.38 for P). A significant decrease in the content of macroelements in the cortical bone was found in men over 70 years of age. Conclusions: Patterns of increased loss of macronutrients (Ca, P, and Mg) in the femoral neck (cortical bone) were demonstrated in the following patients with osteoarthritis: women aged 51–60 years and patients of both sexes over 70 years of age.
