Hip stress distribution - Predictor of dislocation in hip arthroplasties. A retrospective study of 149 arthroplasties.

Dislocation after hip arthroplasty is still a major concern. Recent study of the volumetric wear of the cup has suggested that stresses studied in a one-legged stance model could predispose arthroplasty dislocation. The aim of this work was to study whether biomechanical parameters of contact stress...
