[Our experience in the use of Thompson's endoprosthesis in medial fractures of the femur neck].
The study reports the results of a study of a random sample of 40 patients with medial fractures of the collum femoris in whom the caput femoris was substituted by Thompson's cemented prosthesis, taken from a series of 189 operations performed between 1981 and 1987. In conclusion, Thompson's prosthesis is demonstrated to be still valid in patients over 75 years old.
