The objective of this study was to experimentally determine the optimal length of a femoral component in revision total hip arthroplasty (THA). Embalmed cadaveric femurs were loaded in a physiologic manner, and strains on the lateral cortex were measured. Two kinds of defects were tested to simulate
## Abstract Failure of total hip arthroplasty femoral stems is a serious clinical complication. Even modern metal alloys and designs sometimes suffer such incidents. The reported study aimed at the investigation of the reasons leading the __in vivo__ fracture of two Ti6Al4V femoral stems. Stems wer
