Anatomic grooved stem mitigates strain shielding compared to established total hip arthroplasty stem designs in finite-element models

Aseptic loosening remains a major problem for uncemented femoral components in primary total hip arthroplasty (THA). Ideally, bone adaptation after THA manifests minimally and local bone density reduction is widely avoided. Different design features may help to approximate initial, post-THA bone str...
