Abstract:
Some studies recommends uncemented prothesis in treating femoral neck fractures as the blood loss, operative time, and incidence of embolism are lower. On the other hand, others recommend using a cemented prosthesis for fracture neck of femur treatment as there is reduced thigh pain, facilitates early mobilization and a decreased incidence of prosthetic loosening. Uncertainty exists regarding whether a uncemented bipolar hemiarthroplasty for the treatment of displaced femoral neck fractures could have the same clinical outcomes as a cemented bipolar hemiarthroplasty. This study compared a using uncemented and cemented bipolar prosthesis in the treatment of fracture neck of femur
