    Primary stability of total hip stems: does surgical technique matter?

    With this preliminary study we hypothesized a modified implantation technique may lead to higher primary stability than the conventional one.

    The influence of head diameter and wall thickness on deformations of metallic acetabular press-fit cups and UHMWPE liners: a finite element analysis

    To increase the range of motion of total hip endoprostheses, prosthetic heads need to be enlarged, which implies that the cup and/or liner thickness must decrease. This may have negative effects on the wear ra...

    HiL simulation for testing joint stability after total knee arthroplasty

    Instability of total knee replacements (TKRs) remains one of the most prevalent complications after total knee arthroplasty. Especially the actual event of instability involving complex interactions between im...
