Instability and dislocation after total hip arthroplasty (THA) is a common reason for revision surgery. THA head-neck adapters promise the reconstruction of optimal femoral offset and leg length in revision THA (rTHA) while retaining stable implants. The aim of this retrospective multi-centre study is to report on the results achieved with the use of head adapters in partial rTHA, to avoid the instability of the implant.

Abstract
Instability and dislocation after total hip arthroplasty (THA) is a common reason for revision surgery. THA head-neck adapters promise the reconstruction of optimal femoral offset and leg length in revision THA (rTHA) while retaining stable implants. The aim of this retrospective multi-centre study is to report on the results achieved with the use of head adapters in partial rTHA, to avoid the instability of the implant.File in questo prodotto:
