Multiplanar Semicircular New-Generation Implant System Developed for Proximal Femur Periprosthetic Fractures: A Biomechanical Study.

The study aimed to evaluate a newly designed semicircular implant for the fixation of Vancouver Type B1 periprosthetic femoral fractures (PFFs) in total hip arthroplasty (THA) patients. To determine its strength and clinical applicability, the new implant was compared biomechanically with conventional fixation methods, such as lateral locking plate fixation and a plate combined with cerclage wires. : Fifteen synthetic femur models were used in this biomechanical study.
