Vibratory and conventional impaction of acetabular components into porcine acetabula
Bone fracture risk due to high impaction forces could be reduced by vibrational implant insertion at the cost of a reduction in primary stability. The outcome of the vibratory impaction method in porcine bone was similar to a previous study using polyurethane foams, suggesting that the viscoelasticity of bone may not play a crucial role during press-fit implant impaction.
