Intramedullary Nailing of Periarticular Fractures [PDF]
, 2018 Plate fixation has historically been the preferred surgical treatment method for periarticular fractures of the lower extremity. This trend has stemmed from difficulties with fracture reduction and concerns of inadequate fixation with intramedullary ...

Application of Far Cortical Locking Technology in Periprosthetic Femoral Fracture Fixation: A Biomechanical Study [PDF]
, 2016 © 2016 Elsevier Inc. Background Lack of fracture movement could be a potential cause of periprosthetic femoral fracture (PFF) fixation failures. This study aimed to test whether the use of distal far cortical locking screws reduces the overall stiffness ...

Atypical periprosthetic femoral fracture associated with long-term bisphosphonate therapy
Journal of Orthopaedic Surgery and Research, 2020 Background Atypical femoral fracture is one of the many complications after the long-term use of bisphosphonates. The American Society for Bone and Mineral Research has officially excluded periprosthetic femoral fractures (PFFs) from the definition of ...

Bisphosphonate-induced periprosthetic fracture: a cause of painful total hip arthroplasty [PDF]
, 2014 Background. Cases have been reported in the literature of periprosthetic fractures associated with the use of bisphosphonates occurring in the long term following a Total Hip Replacement (THR).

Outcomes of total hip arthroplasty, as a salvage procedure, following failed internal fixation of intracapsular fractures of the femoral neck: a systematic review and meta-analysis. [PDF]
, 2016 AIMS: The optimal management of intracapsular fractures of the femoral neck in independently mobile patients remains open to debate. Successful fixation obviates the limitations of arthroplasty for this group of patients.

Influence of cementless hip stems on femoral cortical strain pattern depending on their extent of porous coating [PDF]
, 2012 The extent of porous coating of cementless total hip stems is held responsible for radiological periprosthetic changes, the rate of thigh pain, and even its long-term success.

Journal of Orthopaedic Surgery and Research, 2019 Background The primary aim was to compare the outcomes of locked plating of closed distal femur periprosthetic and non-periprosthetic fractures by testing the hypothesis that outcomes would be worse in the periprosthetic group.

Technical Note for Transfemoral Implantation of Tapered Revision Stems. The Advantage to Stay Short
Arthroplasty Today, 2021 Background: The aim was to test the hypothesis that during transfemoral implantation of a conical revision stem, the fixation of the stem at the distal tip leads to a low rate of periprosthetic fractures. Material and Methods: Two hundred eighty-two stem
