Periprosthetic femoral fractures in minimally-invasive anterolateral short stem versus transgluteal straight stem cementless total hip arthroplasty: What are the differences in the femoral and pelvic morphology?

The morphology of the proximal femur and the pelvis do not differ in several radiological parameters in patients sustaining a PFF between cementless short stem implanted via an anterolateral approach and straight stem THA implanted via a transgluteal approach. While there are differences in the Vancouver types of PFFs, these differences do not reflect any difference in the morphology of the proximal femur and the pelvis.
