THE BOOK ON SHORT SHAFT PROSTHESES

SHORT SHAFT HIP arthroplasty:

THE REVOLUTION OF THE MOST SUCCESSFUL OPERATION OF THE CENTURY

The implantation of an artificial hip joint is one of the most common operations worldwide and is considered the most successful operation to restore quality of life. In the last 15 years, two new components have been added to hip arthroplasty, which additionally eliminate some of the disadvantages of conventional implants and techniques.

It is becoming increasingly clear that, on the one hand, minimally invasive approaches and, on the other hand, short and rounded thigh implants (short-shaft prostheses) in combination are extremely valuable for us as orthopedic surgeons, but especially for our patients.
This book summarizes the philosophy and development of short-stem prostheses as well as the most interesting findings. The book covers the principles and techniques as well as the potential benefits and considerations for physicians and patients.

Every orthopedist and every patient is strongly recommended to familiarize themselves with the concepts and features of the most modern type of hip arthroplasty. The future lies here!
