  • Title: Reapproximation of femoral anatomy in a young hip arthroplasty patient. A case report.
    Author: Christensen CM, Schultz RB.
    Journal: Orthop Rev; 1989 Feb; 18(2):200-2. PubMed ID: 2648260.
    Abstract:
    A 33-year-old white man with a total hip arthroplasty presented with a malunion deformity of his femur following a fracture. Careful reapproximation of normal anatomy was achieved through a corrective angled osteotomy procedure. An attempt was made to reduce anticipated risks associated with future revision arthroplasty, and the patient's difficulties in ambulation were alleviated.
