Abstract
Bipolar hemiarthroplasty (BHA) for osteoporotic femoral neck fractures has a risk of proximal femoral fracture during trials, especially with larger trial bipolar shells. This study introduces a novel technique for BHA via the direct anterior approach, aiming to reduce trial use and lower the risk of iatrogenic femoral fractures. The "no trial reduction technique" involves positioning only the trial neck segment against the acetabulum's me-dial wall, without the bipolar shell and trial head. Fluoros-copy measures limb length differences to determine optimal femoral head and bipolar shell thickness, resulting in comparable limb lengths without early complications. [Orthopedics. 2025;48(2):74-78.].
期刊介绍：
For over 40 years, Orthopedics, a bimonthly peer-reviewed journal, has been the preferred choice of orthopedic surgeons for clinically relevant information on all aspects of adult and pediatric orthopedic surgery and treatment. Edited by Robert D''Ambrosia, MD, Chairman of the Department of Orthopedics at the University of Colorado, Denver, and former President of the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons, as well as an Editorial Board of over 100 international orthopedists, Orthopedics is the source to turn to for guidance in your practice.
The journal offers access to current articles, as well as several years of archived content. Highlights also include Blue Ribbon articles published full text in print and online, as well as Tips & Techniques posted with every issue.
