Complete Displacement of the Femoral Stem During Dislocation of a THR

Abstract: We report an unusual complication of late dislocation of a total hip replacement. The femoral stem had completely migrated from the shaft. The insertion of a new long-stem prosthesis was successful.

“…Stem loosening with 12.2% and femoral shaft fractures with 14.3% were observed relatively less contributing to all dislocations caused by femoral component defects. An uncommon case was examined with complete femoral stem migration from the femoral shaft due to femoral component loosening [22]. In order to reduce the stresses on the stem area after prosthetic hip implantation, several studies have been reported on the stress analysis of femoral stems [23,24].…”
