Can larger-bodied cemented femoral components reduce periprosthetic fractures? A biomechanical study

Can larger-bodied cemented femoral components reduce periprosthetic fractures? A biomechanical study The use of large body polished tapered cemented stems for neck of femur fractures increases the torque to failure in a biomechanical model and therefore is likely to reduce late periprosthetic fracture risk in this vulnerable cohort. http://www.deepdyve.com/assets/images/DeepDyve-Logo-lg.png Archives of Orthopaedic and Trauma Surgery Springer Journals
