Autograft-prosthesis composite use for a Vancouver type B1 periprosthetic femur fracture with pelvic acetabular component migration after bipolar hemiarthroplasty: A case report
Bibliographic record
Abstract
INTRODUCTION: Bipolar hemiarthroplasty (BHA) is a commonly performed procedure for elderly patients with an intra-capsular fracture of the femoral neck. However, surgeons performing BHA worry about the rate of acetabular wear, and acetabular prosthesis protrusion can pose a challenging surgical problem. The number of periprosthetic femur fractures is expected to increase. Generally, well-fixed stems require open reduction and internal fixation (ORIF), whereas loose stems require revision arthroplasty. CASE REPORT: A 68-year-old Asian woman was admitted to our hospital. She had sustained a left displaced femoral neck fracture at the age of 58 years. BHA was performed via a posterior approach in another hospital. Ten years later, she presented with severe left hip pain following a low-energy fall. A radiograph of the hip joint demonstrated a Vancouver type B1 periprosthetic femur fracture with severe acetabular prosthetic protrusion. Single-stage reconstructive surgery was performed. A transgluteal approach was used, with distal extension to the fracture site of the femur. Acetabular reconstruction was performed using a Kerboull-type plate in combination with massive allografts for the large bone defects of the acetabulum. Regarding the femoral side, the proximal bone fragment and cementless stem that had been fixed were longitudinally opened with an osteotomy and separated. After that, the stem was changed to a cemented long stem and combined with the prior proximal bone fragments using cement and wires in an allograft-prosthesis composite technique (autograft-prosthesis composite). CONCLUSION: Although the standard treatment for Vancouver type B1 periprosthetic femur fractures is ORIF, it would have been difficult to reconstruct the hip joint solely with osteosynthesis because the femur was severely shortened by marked migration of the BHA. Single-stage reconstructive surgery using an autograft-prosthesis composite was effective treatment for a Vancouver type B1 periprosthetic femur fracture with concomitant severe acetabular prosthetic protrusion after BHA.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
