Abstract Purpose of Review Fractures of osteoporotic bone in elderly individuals need
special attention. This manuscript reviews the current strategies to provide sufficient fracture …

Finite element analysis (FEA) is a powerful quantitative tool that models mechanical
performance in virtual reconstructions of complex structures, such as animal skeletons. The …

Despite the worldwide success achieved by total hip arthroplasty (THA), this procedure is
nonetheless associated with a variety of complications that could have deleterious outcomes …

Stress shielding and micromotions are the most significant problems occurring at the bone-
implants interface due to a mismatch of their mechanical properties. Mechanical 3D …

Biomechanics of total hip arthroplasty (THA) is one of the areas where physiology,
engineering, and physics meet. In this article, we will cover biomechanical impacts of …

Background and aim The management of femoral periprosthetic fractures following hip
replacement surgery is a complex and challenging situation. Whilst the early complications …

Management of periprosthetic fractures around the femoral stem after total hip arthroplasty
(THA) represents a significant challenge and optimal treatment remains controversial. The …

Femoral shaft fractures after total hip arthroplasty (THA) remain a serious problem, since
there is no optimal surgical repair method. Virtually all studies that examined surgical repair …

Loading configuration of hip joint creates resultant bending effect on femoral implants. So,
the lateral side of femoral implant which is under tension retracts from peri‑implant bone due …

Current clinical data suggest a higher failure rate for internal fixation in Vancouver type B1
periprosthetic femoral fracture (PFF) fixations compared to long stem revision in B2 fractures …
