Resumen

FERRER-CATASUS, T et al. Case report: total hip replacement in osteogenesis imperfecta. Acta ortop. mex [online]. 2017, vol.31, n.4, pp.202-205. ISSN 2306-4102.

We study, apropos of a case, a total hip arthroplasty in a patient with osteogenesis imperfecta. The characteristics of this disease, such as high risk of fracture and the presence of deformities, make this surgery a challenge for the orthopedic surgeon. In this manuscript, we review for the first time in this indication the preoperative planning and the selection of implants, with special emphasis on measures for the prevention of complications.

Palabras llave : Arthroplasty; planning; osteogenesis imperfecta; hip.
