Long-term results of an anatomically implanted hip arthroplasty with a short stem prosthesis (MiniHipTM)

Figure 1 “Top down concept” of the MiniHip^TM to restore the individual joint geometry. The individual femoral neck cut and physiological orientation of the partially retained femoral neck allows the reconstruction of the individual joint geometry. A: Valgus hip deformity; B: A deeper femoral neck cut leads a reduction of the femoral offset with an accurate reconstruction of the joint geometry; C: Varus hip; D: A low femoral neck provides a reconstruction of the geometry with an increased femoral offset with an appropriate successfully reconstructed joint geometry.
