Femoral Shaft Fractures After Cemented Total Hip Arthroplasty
Overview
Authors

Thirty-seven femoral shaft fractures occurred in 2360 cemented hip arthroplasties carried out between 1971 and 1989 at varying intervals after operation (average 3.7 years). Three types of fracture were recognised and treatment depended on the type, as did the prognosis. Good results were obtained in 70% of the cases.
