Mid-Term Clinical Results of VerSys Hip System (Zimmer) Uncemented Total Hip Replacement Arthroplasty.

CONCLUSION: These data suggest that patients receiving VerSys Hip System uncemented THR demonstrate favorable results pertaining pain score and range of motion. However, high rate of intraoperative fracture and malalignment of implants, which may be at a risk of dislocation and/or polyethylene wear in future, suggests that this implant technique requires improvement.
