Design modifications of the uncemented Furlong hip stem result in minor early subsidence but do not affect further stability
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Even small design modifications of uncemented hip stems may alter the postoperative 3-D migration pattern. The Furlong Active is an uncemented femoral stem which, in terms of design, is based on its precursor-the well-proven Furlong HAC-but has undergone several design changes. The collar has been removed on the Active stem along with the lateral fin; it is shorter and ha...
متن کاملIs stem design important in uncemented total hip replacement to decrease subsidence in obese patients?
© Annals of Joint. All rights reserved. Ann Joint 2017;2:50 aoj.amegroups.com There has been a world-wide trend towards cementless total hip replacement (THR) over the last 20 years (1). One of the primary reasons for the introduction of the cementless stem was to improve the outcome in younger, more active patients, particularly males. The New Zealand Joint Registry (NZJR) has shown a revision...
متن کاملMid term results of Furlong LOL uncemented hip hemiarthroplasty for fractures of the femoral neck.
We report the mid-term results of hemiarthroplasty with the Furlong hydroxyapatite coated bipolar prosthesis for displaced (Garden type III and IV) intracapsular hip fracture in 480 patients operated between 1989 and 2000. Three hundred sixty eight (77%) patients were lost to follow-up due to death, dementia or movement away from the area. In the patients followed up there was an 8% reoperation...
متن کاملCortical hypertrophy with a short, curved uncemented hip stem does not have any clinical impact during early follow-up
BACKGROUND Short stems have become more and more popular for cementless total hip arthroplasty in the past few years. While conventional, uncemented straight stems for primary total hip arthroplasty (THA) have shown high survival rates in the long term, it is not known whether uncemented short stems represent a reasonable alternative. As cortical hypertrophy has been reported for short stems, t...
متن کاملLocal Perturbations Do Not Affect Stability of Laboratory Fruitfly Metapopulations
BACKGROUND A large number of theoretical studies predict that the dynamics of spatially structured populations (metapopulations) can be altered by constant perturbations to local population size. However, these studies presume large metapopulations inhabiting noise-free, zero-extinction environments, and their predictions have never been empirically verified. METHODOLOGY/PRINCIPAL FINDINGS He...
