Evaluation of bone ingrowth in proximally and extensively porous-coated anatomic medullary locking prostheses retrieved at autopsy.

Abstract
Three proximally (40 per cent) and five extensively (80 per cent) porous-coated anatomic medullary locking femoral components were retrieved from seven cadavera at autopsy. Each component (with the surrounding, intact femur), was sectioned transversely at one-centimeter intervals. Backscatte
