Official Title: Locking Compression Plate Fixation Versus Revision- Prosthesis of Vancouver-B2, B3 and C Periprosthetic Femoral Fractures After Total Hip Replacement

Brief Summary: The purpose of this study was to compare the clinical (range of motion, weight bearing, quality of life) and radiographic outcome (boney consolidation) between open reduction and internal fixation using locking compression plates with revision prosthesis using a non-cemented long femoral stem in a group of patients with a Vancouver type-B2, B3 and C periprosthetic fracture after primary total hip replacement.

Detailed Summary:
Sponsor: Medical University of Vienna

Current Primary Outcome:

  • Clinical Outcome (Range of Motion of the hip) [ Time Frame: follow up of at least 1 year ]
    Range of Motion of the hip
  • Radiographic Outcome (boney consolidation of the fracture) [ Time Frame: follow up of at least 1 year ]
    boney consolidation of the fracture after 3 month, 6 month and at least 1 year after the operation


Original Primary Outcome: Same as current

Current Secondary Outcome: Patient's Mobility (assessed by the Parker's Mobility Score) [ Time Frame: follow up of at least 1 year ]

Patient's Mobility assessed by the Parker's Mobility Score


Original Secondary Outcome: Same as current
