Purpose of the Study:

  • To evaluate the biomechanical features and long-term clinical outcomes of the Biodirect cementless prosthesis.
  • To assess the relationship between implantation accuracy and patient results.

Main Methods:

  • Review of clinical and radiographic data from patients treated with the Biodirect prosthesis.
  • Analysis of biomechanical aspects related to cementless fixation in femoral neck fracture treatment.

Main Results:

  • Generally favorable long-term clinical and radiographic results were observed.
  • Study findings suggest a direct correlation between the accuracy of the implantation technique and patient outcomes.

Conclusions:

  • The Biodirect cementless prosthesis demonstrates effective long-term performance for displaced femoral neck fractures.
  • Accurate surgical technique is crucial for optimizing outcomes with this cementless implant.
