Le fratture periprotesiche: scelta della sintesi nell’anca
Abstract
PERIPROSTHETIC FRACTURES: CHOOSING THE CORRECT HIP TREATMENT
Periprosthetic fractures are constantly increasing. The key to a correct treatment lies in an appropriate classification,
preoperative planning and in different surgical options. The management of these fractures is rather demanding, as
the surgeon has to face simultaneously a loose implant, poor bone quality or bone loss, in a frail, elderly patient. We
suggest an algorithm for the treatment of periprosthetic fractures of femur, acetabulum and pelvis, and for
interprosthetic fractures.
