Maintenance of bone mineral density after implantation of a femoral neck hip prosthesis

BACKGROUND: Stress shielding of the proximal femur has been observed in a number of conventional cementless implants used in total hip arthroplasty. Short femoral-neck implants are claiming less interference with the biomechanics of the proximal femur. The goal of this study was to investigate the c...
