Correlation between the Bone Mineral Density and Stress on Femur around a Duetto SI Stem
In cementless stem fixation, BMD reduction around the stem is of concern because it may cause loosening. This BMD reduction is assumed to be caused by stem implantation-induced alteration of the physiological feedback system, which may cause stress shielding and result in loosening, but the causal r...
