متن کاملPeriprosthetic Fractures About the Hip
INTRODUCTION Little research has examined postrehabilitation functional outcomes of periprosthetic hip fractures.

This study aimed to compare functional outcomes of periprosthetic fractures to matched patients with total hip arthroplasty (THA). MATERIALS AND METHODS Cases with peripros...
متن کاملOutcomes of Surgical Management of Supracondylar Periprosthetic Femur Fractures.
