Varus stem positioning does not affect long-term functional outcome in cementless anatomical total hip arthroplasty

Introduction Varus positioning is the most common femoral malposition in total hip arthroplasty (THA). We compared the long-term outcomes of an anatomical cementless femoral stem positioned in varus versus neutral alignment. Materials and methods Data were retrospectively reviewed for all patients r...

Description
Summary:Introduction Varus positioning is the most common femoral malposition in total hip arthroplasty (THA). We compared the long-term outcomes of an anatomical cementless femoral stem positioned in varus versus neutral alignment. Materials and methods Data were retrospectively reviewed for all patients receiving a cementless anatomical femoral stem in THA for osteoarthritis between 1998 and 2008. Exclusion criteria were complex cases, incomplete data or follow-up
