As populations continue to age, total hip replacement (THR) is becoming an increasingly common surgical procedure. Experts estimate that approximately one million THRs are performed each year ...
The objective of this study was to estimate the incidence and risk factors for periprosthetic femoral fractures in a population-based cohort of patients ten to twelve years following primary THR. A ...
As populations continue to age, total hip replacement (THR) is becoming an increasingly common surgical procedure. Experts estimate that approximately one million THRs are performed each year ...
We conclude that periprosthetic fracture occurs in about one in 400 THR recipients per year once these patients are 10 years out from their hip replacement. These data will help clinicians as they ...
This type of stem was found to be better at preventing early femoral fracture after total hip replacement than flat-tapered wedge stems. As populations continue to age, total hip replacement (THR) is ...
