Session Title: Periprosthetic Proximal Femur Fractures: Do we know when to fix or replace?
The clinical and economical burdens associated with periprosthetic fractures have unfortunately become the latest epidemic within trauma and orthopaedic fracture management. Their volume continues to increase year on year, as does the fragility and frailty of the patients they affect, making them more and more complex to management effectively and efficiently.
Please join Mr Birender Kapoor from Liverpool University Hospitals NHS trust, for an engaging session as he touches upon the latest evidence regarding proximal femur periprosthetic fracture diagnosis and surgical management. This will include using a number of complex clinical case discussions from within his practice across trauma and revision hip arthroplasty, as well as an open forum to discuss the floors experiences in treating these complex fracture patterns in complex patients (as time allows!).
This session is supported by DePuy Synthes and the VA-LCP Periprosthetic Proximal Femur (PPFX) plating system.
Join us to learn more at BOA 2023; we look forward to welcoming you to this session.
