Description
The video discusses the crucial steps involved in the surgical technique for inserting a cementless stem in hip arthroplasty. Dominic Meek emphasizes the importance of templating the area before surgery, particularly the positioning of the lesser trochanter, to accurately assess leg length and offset during the operation. Key processes include ensuring an accurate neck cut to avoid varus positioning and the necessity of calcar reaming for insertion. Meek provides guidance on properly using rasps to create a stable fit without causing fractures, highlighting the need for patience throughout the procedure. The discussion also covers checking for stability and performing final tests for positioning before reducing the hip joint. Speaker 2 concludes the video by mentioning future educational opportunities for further learning on the topic.
