Pathomorphological features of the proximal femur in crowe IV hips and their implication on stem selection during total hip arthroplasty
In Crowe IV hips, the GT height is shorter and the LT is located far more distally along the femoral metaphysis, resulting in a narrower canal width at the upper border of the lesser trochanter. Also, the CFI at the LT level is smaller, and to fit a wedge stem, the neck cut should be made at a higher level.
