Impaction allografting of the proximal femur using a Charnley-type stem: A cement mantle analysis

The preoperative and early postoperative radiographs of 50 patients undergoing femoral impaction grafting with a modified Charnley stem and dedicated impaction grafting instrumentation were assessed to determine the predictability of the cement mantle being produced. The minimal cement mantle thickn...
