Aseptic loosening of total hip prostheses leads to increasing bone resorption. The extensive bone loss often does not allow a reliable stem implantation in the former prosthetic bed. An uncemented femoral revision prosthesis is presented which bridges the damaged bone and is firmly anchored in the diaphysis.

Congenital Deficiency of the Femur
Journal of Pediatric Orthopaedics, 1985A classification system for congenital deficiency of the femur is introduced, based on initial radiographic appearance of the hip joint in 60 patients (70 affected limbs). Follow-up records ranging from 1 to 30 years demonstrated a relatively constant percentage of shortening in each patient with further growth (2.4% average change). Treatment programs

Infantile Fibrosarcoma of Femur
Fetal and Pediatric Pathology, 1987We describe the clinical presentation and pathological features of an infantile fibrosarcoma of the femur that occurred in a 3 1/2-month-old male infant. The tumor grew rapidly, reaching large size within a few months, finally requiring amputation. The tumor was poorly circumscribed, infiltrating the adjacent soft tissue extensively.

Fractures of the hip are associated with various complications. Patients with hip fractures are often bed-bound and require intensive nursing and care. The rate of hip fractures is likely to continue to rise globally, and early intervention is currently seen as the optimal course for patients with such injuries.

The femur, the largest tubular bone in the body, is surrounded by the largest mass of muscles and is designed to withstand greater forces than any other bone. Fractures of the femur are almost always the result of great violence and are sometimes a threat to the patient’s life, not only because of the immediate complications such as bleeding or ...

Interprosthetic Fractures of the Femur
Orthopedics, 2018As the rate of hip and knee arthroplasty procedures increases, so will the rate of interprosthetic fractures. Several factors, including bone quality, bone quantity, and stability of the prosthetic components, play a role in determining the appropriate operative treatment.

Intracortical lipoma of the femur
Skeletal Radiology, 2007Intracortical lipoma is an extremely rare benign primary bone tumor. We encountered a case of an intracortical lipoma found incidentally in the femur of a 31-year-old female. Magnetic resonance imaging and computed tomography of the femur demonstrated an intracortical fatty lesion in the posterolateral aspect of the diaphysis.

Experiences with functional bracing of certain femoral fractures have been rewarding by virtue of the fact that length, alignment, and rotation were adequately maintained during functional ambulation during fracture healing. However, the femur has been the least consistent bone to respond well to functional bracing. Angulatory deformities, usually of a

, 1965 A fracture of the femur is a severe injury; it is dreaded because of its consequences to the patient as a whole. The indication for the operation therefore depends on more factors than simply the operative and technical details (see the section on Shock and Fat Embolism).
