Finite element has been used for more than four decades to study and evaluate the
mechanical behaviour total joint replacements. In Huiskes seminal paper “Failed innovation …

With particular interest on total hip arthroplasty (THA), optimization of orthopedic prostheses
is employed in this work to minimize the probability of implant failure or maximize prosthesis …

One of the crucial factors for short-and long-term clinical success of total hip arthroplasty
cementless implants is primary stability. Indeed, motion at the bone–implant interface above …

BACKGROUND: The primary stability of a cementless implant is crucial to ensure long term
stability through osseointegration. In the present study we have examined how subject …

The present work describes a statistical investigation into the effects of implant positioning
on the initial stability of a cementless total hip replacement (THR). Mesh morphing was …

Cementless hip stems are fixed to the surrounding bone by means of press-fit. To ensure a
good press-fit, current surgical technique specifies an under-reaming of the bone cavity …

This paper is concerned with the primary stability of the Furlong Evolution® cementless short
stem across a spectrum of patient morphology. A computational tool is developed that …

Introduction The femoral canal fill between an anatomic and a straight prosthesis design in
cementless total hip arthroplasty (THA) was compared. We hypothesised that the anatomic …

Hip prosthetic implants represent a consolidated and successful solution to restore
functional gait in patients affected by a wide range of disease including osteoarthritis …

BACKGROUND: Cement injection into osteolytic areas around the cement mantle is a
technique for refixation of loose hip implants for patients who cannot undergo standard …
