Femoral Neck Fractures
Conditions
Brief summary
Retrieval study and histological examination of BiMetric Femoral Components with hydroxyapatite coatings.
Detailed description
A single type of femoral component with 3 different HA coatings will be evaluated in this study. Patients with fractured neck of femur requiring hemi-arthroplasty will be recruited. Safety and performance of the device will be determined by adverse events (device related or non-related), survival and histological exam.
Interventions
Hip stem with plasma sprayed porous Titanium 6Al4V alloy + plasma sprayed HA
Hip stem with plasma spayed porous Titanium 6Al4V alloy + Bonemaster HA
Hip stem with Interloc Titanium surface + Bonemaster H.A
