Comparative Study of Proximal Femur Bone Tumor Patients Undergoing Hemiarthroplasty versus Total Hip Arthroplasty: A Meta-Analysis.

ABSTRACT: Hemiarthroplasty and total hip arthroplasty are routinely performed procedures. A comparison of these procedures in tumor patients can be performed based on complications and functional outcomes. To weigh the advantages and disadvantages of both procedures, a comparative study is indeed required to decide which procedure is more beneficial for primary bone tumor patients. The outcomes of proximal femur tumor-resected patients were collected from research reports from PubMed, MEDLINE, EMBASE, Cochrane, and Google Scholar until 30 December 2022. Differences between these two operative procedures in primary bone tumors patients were analyzed based on dislocation, infection, local recurrence, MSTS, and HHS. Six articles were included according to the selection criteria with a total of 360 pati
