Operatively Managed Transverse or Short Oblique B1 Periprosthetic Fractures Around a Polished Taper-Slip Femoral Stem Are Associated With Reoperation in One Third of Cases: A Retrospective Cohort Study

Operatively Managed Transverse or Short Oblique B1 Periprosthetic Fractures Around a Polished Taper-Slip Femoral Stem Are Associated With Reoperation in One Third of Cases: A Retrospective Cohort Study
