  • A cement fixation system for total hip arthroplasty.

    abstract::To combat the most common and most serious cause of mechanical failure of total hip arthroplastics, namely loosening, a method of improving the insertion of methacrylate is presented, called the cement fixation system. Using the cement gun with the keying hole seal, the methacrylate is pressure injected into the keyin...
