Stem anteversion mismatch to the anatomical anteversion causes loss of periprosthetic bone density after THA
The short tapered-wedge stem is popular worldwide because it potentially preserves more bone stock during total hip arthroplasty (THA). However, stem version mismatch may affect physiological stress distribution. In this study, we analyzed the correlations between periprosthetic bone mineral density...
