Massive Femoral Osteolysis Secondary to Loosening of a Cemented Roughened Long Stem: A Case Report

Figure 2

Computed tomography (CT) images of the left femur. Coronal CT image of the left femur shows a massive osteolytic lesion involving two-thirds of the proximal femur with thin cortical fragments surrounding the stem (a). Most of the cement mantle has disappeared except around the greater trochanter and middle of the stem. Axial views from the dotted lines are noted (b)–(d).
