Fatigue fracture of the stem occurred by defective support of the proximal part of the fe
Two matched groups of 28 patients each, with femoral neck fractures treated by primary internal fixation or by secondary total hip replacement after a complication of primary treatment, were evaluated and compared five years or more after primary pin fixation or secondary total hip replacement. The
The aim of this study was to investigate the predisposing factors, fracture location, treatment, and final outcome of femoral fractures after total hip arthroplasty (THA). From 1975 to 1983, 28 patients were seen with 29 fractures on the same side as the prosthesis. Most of the fractures were caused
