ABSTRACT:
The hip prosthesis according to the invention is a further development of the prosthesis formed with conventional head provided with spherical surface, neck and stem, where a guide profile is formed along the outer straight side of the stem, containing components parallel with the side. The guide profile fits the inner surface of the medullary cavity nail, which allows the simultaneous use of the hip prosthesis and the medullary cavity nail, and nailing of the already prosthetized, then fractured femur.
