Purpose The purpose of this review article was to investigate the incidence and
predisposing factors for periprosthetic proximal femoral fractures (PFF) following total hip …

Although the contact pressure increases during implantation of a wedge-shaped implant,
friction coefficients tend to be measured under constant contact pressure, as endorsed in …

Due to the increasing number of periprosthetic femoral fractures (PFF), the optimisation of
implant design gains importance. For the presented research a validated, subject specific …

Periprosthetic femoral fracture (PFF) is a complicated complication of both primary and
revision hip arthroplasty with an increasing incidence. The present study aimed to …

Abstract Total Hip Arthroplasty requires pre-surgical evaluation between un-cemented and
cemented prostheses. A Patient with intra-operative periprosthetic fracture and another with …

Aims Cementless acetabular components rely on press-fit fixation for initial stability. In
certain cases, initial stability is more difficult to obtain (such as during revision). No current …

Featured Application The proposed analytical solution, fast and no time consuming from a
computational point of view, is a good candidate to become the core of an App devoted to …

Achieving primary stability of uncemented press‐fit prostheses in patients with poor quality
bone can involve axial implantation forces large enough to cause bone fracture. Radial …

Most uncemented total hip replacements (THR) rely on press-fit for the initial stability and
thus lead to the secondary fixation which is biological fixation. Choosing the accurate …

Background Periprosthetic femur fractures (PFF) are a rare early complication in primary
total hip arthroplasty (THA) that may result in revision and burden the healthcare system. A …
