Abstract
Background: Periprosthetic femoral fractures (PFFs) are a frequent complication after total hip arthroplasty (THA). Both modular and non-modular tapered fluted titanium (TFT) stems could be used in total hip revisions (THRs). Nevertheless, the most appropriate femoral stem type is still under debate. The current systematic review aims to analyze the survival rate and all causes of stem revision, the overall complication rate and reason for reoperation, and patient reported outcome measures (PROMs) in THR for PFF using the modular tapered titanium stems (MTTS).
