Demographic characteristics influencing the stem subsidence in total hip arthroplasty: an imaging study.

Stem subsidence in THA using cementless DePuy collarless Corail implants is approximately 2.6 mm after 14.4 months. Greater patient weight, age, and longer time elapsed from THA implantation were associated with greater stem subsidence. Patient height and sex did not demonstrate any influence on the amount of stem subsidence. These results must be considered in light of the limitations of the present study.
