Femoral neck retention in hip arthroplasty. A cadaver study of mechanical effects.
نویسندگان
چکیده
The compression forces on the medial cortex of the femoral neck were measured in 6 cadaver specimens using pressure-sensitive film. A hip prosthesis was loaded in an Instron machine comparing the situation with retained versus resected neck. The results indicate that retaining the neck can be mechanically valuable.

In-Hospital Outcomes after Hemiarthroplasty versus Total Hip Arthroplasty for Isolated Femoral Neck Fractures
Background: Previous studies suggest total hip arthroplasty may have some benefits compared to hemi-arthroplasty for displaced intracapsular femoral neck fractures in patients more than 60 years of age. The primary research question of our study was whether in-hospital adverse events, post-operative length of stay (LOS) and mortality in patients 60 year of age or older differed between tot...
متن کاملInvestigation of creep mechanical characteristics of femoral prostheses by simulated hip replacement
In order to provide creep mechanical parameters for the clinical application of both traditional and reserved anatomy femoral artificial joint replacements, simulated hip replacement femoral stress relaxation and creep experiments were performed. Twenty-four corpse femoral specimens were obtained, with 8 specimens being randomly assigned to the control group and 8 specimens being randomly assig...
متن کاملExperimental evaluation of new concepts in hip arthroplasty.
In this thesis we evaluated two different hip arthroplasty concepts trough in vitro studies and numerical analyses. The cortical strains in the femoral neck area were increased by 10 to 15 % after insertion of a resurfacing femoral component compared to values of the intact femur, shown in an in vitro study on human cadaver femurs. There is an increased risk of femoral neck fracture after hip r...
متن کاملReproducing the hip center with a femoral neck-retaining implant.
Because of the recent trend for total hip arthroplasty in younger patients, more bone-preserving implants have been designed, based partly on the premise that maintenance of more bone stock would allow revision with standard primary implants. Another possible advantage of an implant that retains the femoral neck is that it may allow anatomical recreation of the center of the femoral head, femor...
متن کاملThe Effect of Femoral Neck Notching with the Birmingham Mid-Head Resection
The new generation of metal-on-metal hip resurfacing is becoming an increasingly popular alternative to total hip replacement in the younger and more active patient. Mid-term survivorship figures for osteoarthritic patients are comparable to that of patients receiving a total hip arthroplasty. However, individuals receiving a hip resurfacing for aetiologies other than OA, such as avascular necr...
