  • Title: Impaction bone grafting and cemented stem revision in periprosthetic hip fractures: a novel surgical technique.
    Author: Dearden PM, Bobak PP, Giannoudis PV.
    Journal: Hip Int; 2014; 24(2):210-2. PubMed ID: 24186679.
    Abstract:
    With an ageing population, and increasing longevity of hip arthroplasty prostheses, the incidence of periprosthetic femoral fractures is rising. We present a simple and easily reproducible technique for reduction of any periprosthetic fracture that requires bone graft augmentation. This method facilitates impaction bone grafting to reconstitute lost bone stock and revision using a cemented implant.
