Late Nontraumatic Dissociation of the Femoral Head and Trunnion in a Total Hip Arthroplasty
Background. Modular total hip arthroplasties are increasingly popular because customisation allows optimal restoration of patient biomechanics. However, the introduction of component interfaces provides greater opportunities for failure. We present a case of late nontraumatic dissociation of the hea...
