Article Synopsis
  • The cemented stem is effective for various femur shapes and maintains stability, although increased cement viscosity during rotation can impact postoperative stability.
  • A study compared two cementing methods—static and rotating stems—using in vitro testing to measure rotational stability under load and repetitive strain.
  • Results showed no significant differences in rotational stability or torque between the static and rotating methods, suggesting that adjusting the stem's version angle before cement hardening does not adversely affect stability.
