Zurich cementless hip prosthesis and other modern trends in orthopedic surgery

چکیده

New concepts disclaim the use of cementum. They either use press fit or screw fixation to anchor the implants.The most important characteristics of the Zurich Cementless hip prosthesis, developed between 1993 and 2001, is avoidance of the coupling effect of the medial and lateral femoral cortices, and stress shielding due to compliance mismatch. The stem is fastened to the medial cortex with 4 to 5 screws. This instantly provides a stable fixation, which approximates the normal physiological stress distribution on the proximal femur. It allows bone remodeling around the screws.

Revision of an unstable HELICA endoprosthesis with a Zurich cementless total hip replacement.

A six-year-old, female, spayed Labrador Retriever was evaluated for progressive lameness of one year duration, ending in non-weight-bearing of the right hindlimb. The dog had a history of severe coxarthrosis of both hip joints, and had a HELICA hip prosthesis implanted in the right hip 18 months before. On survey radiographs, the acetabular and femoral components appeared unstable, with a large...

Minimum Seven-year Follow-up of Cementless Total Hip Arthroplasty with the COREN Hip System

Total hip arthroplasty (THA) is currently one of the most widely performed procedures in orthopedic practice. Over recent years, THA gained much improvement in terms of prosthesis design, availability of suitable component materials and manufacturing techniques, and a better understanding of hip mechanics. In a previous study, we reported results at a mean 3.2 years following implantation of th...
