Can bone apposition predict the retention force of a femoral stem? An experimental weight-bearing hip-implant model in goats

BACKGROUND: The increasing incidence of prosthesis revision surgery in the Western world has led to an increased focus on the capacity for stem removal. We previously reported on a femoral stem implanted in goats with an approximate 15% reduction in retention force by drilling longitudinally orienta...
