Similar effect of stem geometry on radiological changes with 2 types of cemented straight stem: The Müller stem and the Virtec stem compared in 711 hips

Background and purpose — There are 2 basic principles in cemented stem fixation: shape-closed and force-closed. We investigated 2 shape-closed straight stems, the Müller (MSS) and the Virtec (VSS), which differ only in geometrical cross section, to determine whether the difference in stem shape woul...
