The outcome of displaced intracapsular hip fractures treated with cemented compared to uncemented hemiarthroplasty. Systematic review

Hospital Mortality after Arthroplasty Using a Cemented Stem for Displaced Femoral Neck Fractures

“…1 The optimal treatment remains controversial. [2][3][4] For displaced femoral neck fractures, hemiarthroplasty and total hip arthroplasty (THA) achieve better functional outcome and fewer revision surgeries than internal fixation. 5 Nonetheless, there is no consensus for the use of a cemented or uncemented femoral stem.…”

“…5 Nonetheless, there is no consensus for the use of a cemented or uncemented femoral stem. [2][3][4][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14] Cemented femoral stems result in a better functional outcome and less pain than uncemented femoral stems, with no increased mortality at one month or one year. 5,8,13 Historically, fixation with acrylic bone cement has been associated with increased mortality.…”
