According to published results, stem design was the strongest predictor of postoperative periprosthetic femoral fracture ...

Expanding on the traditional triple-taper design, Zimmer Biomet has launched the Z1™ Femoral Hip System, a design that ...

Corentec’s femoral component is a typical double-tapered, wedge stem, designed to suit the anatomical structure in the marrow cavity. The section is rectangular-shaped, which helps to ensure ...

This is especially true when a well-fixed cemented or porous-coated femoral stem must be revised. Such a situation may arise due to infection, malposition, osteolysis, persistent pain, and ...

A 3D density mapping system assessed stem contact with femoral cortical bone. Results indicated significantly larger contact ...

the extended proximal femoral osteotomy decreases the strength of fixation of the femoral stem. For the standard and long stems, the osteotomized specimens retained 48% and 47%, respectively ...
