Abstract
PURPOSE
To evaluate the results of the treatment of postoperative periprosthetic fracture of the femur associated with loosening of the femoral prosthesis, which is treated by cementless proximal modular stem without bone graft.
MATERIALS AND METHODS
Nine postoperative periprosthetic femoral fractures were classified by Duncan's method. Seven patients were in the B2 group and two were in the B3. All were managed with proximal modular fluted stem. Results were evaluated on the basis of bone union and Harris hip scores at 2.5 years follow-up.
