The long-term success of cementless total hip arthroplasty (THA) may depend on bone
ingrowth into the porous-fixation surfaces of the implant. The ingrowth process is facilitated
when the surgeon achieves a satisfactory fit for the prosthesis. Clinically or
roentgenographically visible failure and persistent thigh pain after cementless THA remain
significant problems, both of which may be alleviated by more precise preparation of the
femoral canal and selection of an appropriately sized prosthesis. The objective of this study�…
