Maximizing the fixation strength of modular components by impaction without tissue damage

OBJECTIVES: Taper junctions between modular hip arthroplasty femoral heads and stems fail by wear or corrosion which can be caused by relative motion at their interface. Increasing the assembly force can reduce relative motion and corrosion but may also damage surrounding tissues. The purpose of thi...
