Left hip fracture treated with a modular bipolar prosthesis in Venezuela
Clinical Case

Left Hip Fracture Treated
with Bipolar Prosthesis
in Venezuela

Stable Reconstruction. Early Mobilization. Better Quality of Life.

“The bipolar implant system showed precise modular design, excellent compatibility, and ease of implantation, providing good stability, especially for elderly patients requiring partial hip replacement.”

Case Overview

Patient 81-year-old
Female
Surgical Area Hip / Joint
Diagnosis Left Hip Fracture
Procedure Partial Hip Replacement with Modular Bipolar Prosthesis

Case Background

This clinical case from Venezuela describes an 81-year-old female patient with a left hip fracture who underwent partial hip replacement, also known as hip hemiarthroplasty. A modular bipolar hip prosthesis was used to reconstruct the hip, with the goal of restoring joint stability and supporting postoperative mobilization.

Clinical Imaging

01 Preoperative Imaging

Radiographic Assessment

Preoperative X-ray imaging documents the left hip fracture before hip hemiarthroplasty. Postoperative radiographic imaging shows the implanted bipolar hip prosthesis, providing a visual reference for its position following partial hip replacement.

System Used

Instrument Set

Instrument set for modular bipolar hip arthroplasty
Dedicated instrumentation for hip arthroplasty
Precise coordination of instruments
Modular compatibility with implant system
Supports efficient surgical workflow
Well-organized tray configuration

Implant Configuration

The modular bipolar prosthesis system used in this hip hemiarthroplasty includes a cementless long femoral stem, a metal femoral head, and bipolar head components. The implant components and dedicated hip arthroplasty instrument set support the preparation and placement of the prosthesis during partial hip replacement.

Case Summary

Clinical Background

An 81-year-old woman with a left hip fracture was treated at Central Hospital of Caracas, Venezuela. No major comorbidities were reported.

Surgical Approach

Under spinal anesthesia, the fractured femoral head was replaced with a modular bipolar prosthesis. Proper implant fit and stability were confirmed.

Outcome

The procedure was completed without complications. Follow-up showed satisfactory recovery, stable healing, and improved function.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

04

Which anatomical area was treated in this case?

The surgical area was the hip joint, specifically the left hip.

05

What was the goal of the surgery?

The goal was to reconstruct the fractured hip, restore joint stability, reduce pain, and help the patient begin postoperative recovery and mobilization.

06

What imaging was used in the case presentation?

The case included preoperative X-ray imaging and postoperative radiographic imaging to show the fracture condition and the position of the implanted prosthesis.

07

What implant system was used in the surgery?

A modular bipolar prosthesis system was used for the partial hip replacement procedure.

08

What are the advantages of a modular bipolar prosthesis system?

The system offers modular component matching, stable fixation, and dedicated instrumentation, which can help surgeons adapt the implant to the patient’s anatomy and surgical needs.
