Two Recent Eye-Catching Studies: Impending vs. Completed Long-Bone Fractures and Cemented vs. Uncemented Hemiarthroplasty for Intracapsular Hip Fracture OrthoJOE

In this episode, Marc and Mo highlight 2 recent JBJS and OrthoEvidence articles that caught their eye: (1) a propensity-matched study focusing on complete and pending fractures in patients with long-bone metastases and (2) an Advanced Clinical Evidence report focusing on the WHiTE-5 trial comparing cemented vs. uncemented hemiarthroplasty for intracapsular hip fracture.
