Cementless long-stem fixation in periprosthetic clamshell fracture: a biomechanical investigation
The integrity of the femoral medial wall is crucial for femoral stem stability. In case of medial wall fracture, while cementless long-stem implantation can achieve satisfactory axial stability, its torsional stability remains inadequate. The application of supplemental cerclage wiring for medial wall fragment fixation provides reliable improvement in torsional stability of the stem.
