Cemented <i>vs</i> uncemented femoral fixation in total hip arthroplasty: A systematic review and meta-analysis of periprosthetic fracture risk.

Primary outcome: PFFs incidence The pooled analysis of the three studies showed a trend towards a lower periprosthetic fracture rate in the cemented group compared to the uncemented group (RR = 0.46; 95%CI: 0.14-1.49; P = 0.19) ( Figure 2 ).

CONCLUSION This meta-analysis suggests that cemented femoral fixation in primary THA may be associated with a lower risk of PFFs compared to uncemented fixation, although this finding did not reach statistical significance and was based on limited, heterogeneous data.
