Comparison of mid-term clinical results between cementless and cemented femoral stems in total hip arthroplasty with femoral shortening osteotomy for Crowe type IV hips.

The cemented femoral prosthesis is superior to the cementless femoral prosthesis for early clinical recovery, while the duration required to achieve bone union at the osteotomy site is longer in the cemented femoral prostheses. It is possible for surgeons to perform successful hip reconstructions, regardless of the fixation method used for THA with shortening femoral osteotomy.
