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 Bone loss in the proximal femur at the time of revision hip arthroplasty for a failed primary cemented femoral component can substantially reduce the stability of the revision stem, Use of an extendedβlength femoral component has been suggested to aid in achieving longβterm fixation; ho
