Because of preservation of proximal femoral bone stock and minimized soft tissue trauma, short-stem implants are becoming increasingly important in total hip arthroplasty (THA). The postulated advantage regarding the functional outcome has not been verified. We hypothesized an increased abductor muscle strength by the use of a short-stem design.

Introduction: Short stem prostheses have been developed to preserve proximal femoral bone stock. This prospective, randomized study compared periprosthetic bone remodelling following short and straight stem implantation 1 year after surgery.

Materials And Methods: One hundred and forty-four consecutive patients undergoing total hip arthroplasty were randomized to either a Fitmore short or a cementless straight stem (both Zimmer, Winterthur, Switzerland).
