Abstract

Despite multiple trials and case series on hip hemiarthroplasty designs, guidance is still lacking on which implant to use. One particularly deficient area is long-term outcomes. We present over 1,000 consecutive cemented Thompson's hemiarthroplasties over a ten-year period, recording all accessible patient and implant outcomes.
