[Ortho] Periprosthetic fx dislocation after THR

[orthoforum на weborto.net]

Dear Sirs, in my opinion the actual problem isn't the AL fracture but 
the  hip dislocation.
The AL fracture can be well reduced and fixed with 2 cerclage wires and 
it is stable and heals, but why was there  a dislocation? I see in fact 
an + 7mm neck so it means that the implant wasn't so stable at the end 
of surgery.
So I'll reduce and fix the fracture than looking to stability eventually 
change the implant to prevent further dislocations Best regards
