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.

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:
