This study presents a case of repeated prosthetic fractures in a modular hip prosthesis in a 56-year-old male patient. After the initial implantation of a modular total hip prosthesis in 2006, the patient experienced two instances of prosthetic implant fractures over seventeen years. In this study, we analyze the clinical case, explore potential underlying causes of this complication, and delve into current indications and strategies for the revision of fractured prosthesis stems. The discussion is informed by a literature review and underscores the significance of selecting appropriate revision techniques to address this challenge.
本研究报告了一例56岁男性患者模块化髋关节假体反复发生假体骨折的病例。2006年首次植入模块化全髋关节假体后,该患者在十七年中经历了两次假体植入物骨折。在本研究中,我们分析了该临床病例,探讨了这种并发症的潜在根本原因,并深入研究了目前骨折假体柄翻修的适应症和策略。讨论以文献综述为依据,并强调选择合适的翻修技术来应对这一挑战的重要性。
