The prevalence of fracture extension in displaced femoral neck fractures in the elderly
. Objective:. Arthroplasty is the common treatment for intracapsular femoral neck fractures in the elderly. Recent studies have shown that there may be more overall complications related to uncemented hemiarthroplasty compared to cemented, including more

Evaluation of a pig femoral head osteonecrosis model [PDF]
Background A major cause of osteonecrosis of the femoral head is interruption of a blood supply to the proximal femur. In order to evaluate blood circulation and pathogenetic alterations, a pig femoral head osteonecrosis model was examined to address ...
