Description: Abstract:Uncemented short-length diaphyseal segmental replacement prosthesis fixation - Finite element analysis and long-term results
Journal of Orthopaedic Research Volume 23, Issue 5 , Pages 1065 - 1072 Published Online: 1 Jan 2006
Conclusions: A short-length fixation system based on intramedullary anchorage of segmental replacement endoprostheses would possibly support physiologic adaptive processes more than fixation over the full length of the stem.
