Hip Arthroplasty

Abstract

Proximal femur has a variable anatomy and anatomical reconstruction during total hip replacement is always a challenge. With good preoperative planning and meticulous intraoperative techniques, it is possible to achieve a stable long-lasting fixation with restoration of length offset and version with a standard femoral prosthesis. But modularity might be required in complex situations like hip dysplasia, post septic sequalae, post perthes disease with secondary arthritis and post osteotomy. SROM stem is a proximal porous coated modular stem which allows modularity in metaphyseal fixation, version, offset, length and allows subtrochanteric shortening osteotomy. It can also be used in revision situation with minimal bone loss in the metaphysis thereby preserving the diaphysis for future revision in young patients. In these selective indications, they provide excellent, durable clinical and radiological outcome.
