Early clinical and radiological outcomes for the Taperloc Complete Microplasty stem.

The use of short stem designs in total hip arthroplasty is not a new concept, but its popularity has increased as a bone-sparing alternative to traditional stems. This study analyzed the midterm clinical and radiological results of the Taperloc Complete Microplasty stem (Zimmer Biomet Warsaw, IN, USA). A total of 32 patients (20 men and 12 women) were retrospectively documented and received 40 stems (eight bilateral).
