| Abstract | We report on two patients with fracture of a modular, tapered and distally fixed, uncemented titanium revision hip stem, not previously described. A failure analysis revealed that the cause of the fractures was the development of fatigue cracks in the mid-stem cobalt-chromium modular junction ending in corrosion-fatigue failure. No material defects or stress risers were found in any of the implants. The diameter of the mid-stem modular junction might be undersized for use in heavy and active patients. We also report a new way of detecting an undisplaced fracture at the modular junction, using the scout image from a computed tomography (CT) scan; a technique that can be used when plain radiographs are inconclusive. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
