Abstract
|
|
|
|
A 58-year-old-male patient presented with worsening pain and restricted movements of his right hip after undergoing multiple procedures for treatment of an inter-trochanteric fracture. Secondary arthrosis and an incorporated intramedullary fibular cortical bone graft which caused severe narrowing of the medullary canal were observed by imaging. Total hip arthroplasty (THA) using knee arthroscopic tools was performed for preparation of the severely narrowed femoral canal. A satisfactory clinical outcome was achieved and stable components were observed on radiographs at the 11-year follow-up. The technique described here may be considered when attempting to perform a conversion THA for preparation of a severely narrowed femoral canal using a fibular strut in order to minimize morbidity and prevent structural destabilization.
