JORDAO, Pedro; BAHUTE, André; FONTOURA, Ugo e MARQUES, Pedro. Técnicas de cimentação femoral. Rev. Port. Ortop. Traum. [online]. 2013, vol.21, n.4, pp.473-478. ISSN 1646-2122.
In the later half of the 20th century, hip replacement surgery became the most successful procedure to relieve pain and restore function for patients with hip osteoarthritis. These good results are a byproduct of improvements both in surgical technique and implant properties. Cemented femoral stems have been considered the gold standard for the last fifty years, with studies showing implant survival rates of up to 96% after 10 years. The success of an arthroplasty is dependent on the understanding of the properties, preparation and usage of cement. This article will review the evolution of femoral cementing techniques, the different stages of cement preparation and the main steps of third-generation cementing.
