description | Background Prosthetic surgery has shown good short-term results with the use of short stems, results comparable with the experience of conventional stems. The aim of this study was to investigate and describe the characteristics and clinical course of patients operated on with the short stem GTS in the medium term. Methods Between November 2010 and September 2014, 152 primary hip prostheses were operated on in 142 patients with a mean follow-up of 95.49 months (range 75–120). We analyzed the intraoperative and postoperative complications and the reviews performed during the follow-up. Results One intraoperative complications occurred; case in which a femoral calcar fracture occurred and a screw was required during the operation. The clinical evaluation at the end of the follow-up, according to the Merle D’Aubigne Scale, showed the mean value was 17.3684 (SD 0,79472), with a survival at the end of the follow-up of 99.3% of the placed GTS stems. Conclusions GTS short stems have shown good results after more than 6 years of follow-up, with comparable results to conventional uncemented stems. Short-stem hip arthroplasty is an advanced way to preserve bone stock while protecting soft tissue |
