Reduced periprosthetic fracture rate for a cemented anatomical versus a tapered polished stem in hip arthroplasty: A 6‐year follow‐up of a prospective observational cohort study

Abstract Purpose In older patients requiring a hip arthroplasty, the cemented straight collarless polished tapered stems (PTSs) have been linked to an increased risk of periprosthetic femur fractures (PFFs) when compared to anatomically shaped stems (ASs).
