Abstract

Introduction & Aims
For displaced intracapsular fractures of the femoral neck the most frequently employed hemiarthroplasty in Australia is the Uncemented Austin Moore (UAM) prosthesis.
Despite concerns regarding the poor functional outcome and increased revision rates associated with the UAM prosthesis, apprehension about the systemic effects of PMMA acrylic cement implantation in the elderly patient continues to influence prosthesis selection.
This study examines the incidence early prosthesis related complications after Uncemented Austin Moore (UAM) and Cemented Thompson (CT) hemiarthroplasty implantation for the management of femoral neck fractures.

Citation countsare sourced monthly from Scopus and Web of Science citation databases.

These databases contain citations from different subsets of available publications and different time periods and thus the citation count from each is usually different. Some works are not in either database and no count is displayed. Scopus includes citations from articles published in 1996 onwards, and Web of Science generally from 1980 onwards.
