Over the last two decades, several conservative femoral prostheses have been designed.
The goals of conservative stems include: the spearing of the trochanteric bone stock; a more …

Background and purpose—Short-stem hip arthroplasty has been a viable alternative to
standard stems for the treatment of hip osteoarthritis for over 10 years. This study assessed …

Purpose: Metastatic femoral neck fractures in the elderly population are typically managed
with cemented hip hemiarthroplasty. With the paucity of similar studies, this study aims to …

Background and purpose: The consensus that bone stock preservation and optimal
restoration of offset and leg length is important in total hip arthroplasty is now widespread …

Purpose: Metaphyseal, proximally anchored uncemented stems for total hip arthroplasty
provide bone preservation and decrease the incidence of proximal stress shielding and …

Background: Mid-term results (clinical and radiographic) of ultra-short anatomical
cementless stem total hip arthroplasty (THA) in patients with osteonecrosis of the femoral …

Background: Total hip arthroplasty (THA) with a diaphyseal stem may risk bone loss. In order
to save proximal bone stock in young patients with a high activity level and a long life …

BACKGROUND Subsidence is one of the concerning early complications in cementless
femoral stem. Few publications have studied the influencing factors for subsidence in short …

Background There has been an evolution in cementless total hip arthroplasty (THA) with
newer short stem designs aimed to preserve metaphyseal bone stock and facilitate …

Background and purpose—Despite the good results after total hip arthroplasty (THA), new
implants are continuously being developed to improve durability. The Echo Bi-Metric (EBM) …
