An experimental model was designed to investigate the role of intramedullary pressure on cardiopulmonary function and pulmonary pathology during arthroplasty using cemented and non-cemented components. Twenty-four dogs were divided randomly into three groups: a group that received a non-cemented implant in which low intramedullary pressure was generated, a group that received a cemented implant, and one that received bone wax and an implant; high intramedullary pressures were generated in the latter two groups. Bone wax was used to generate high intramedullary pressures without the use of bone cement.
