Area of Science:

  • Orthopedic surgery
  • Biomaterials engineering
  • Surgical implant technology

Context:

  • Growing trend towards uncemented femoral stems in hip arthroplasty.
  • Misconceptions surrounding "cement disease" and perceived poor performance of cemented stems.
  • Successful outcomes and ease of cementless acetabular fixation influencing perceptions.

Purpose:

  • To highlight the enduring benefits and advantages of cemented femoral fixation in hip arthroplasty.
