Cooke and Newman classification
Updates to Article Attributes
Body
was changed:
The Cooke and Newman classification of periprosthetic hip fractures is a modification of the Bethea classification proposed several years earlier.
- type I: explosion type fracture, comminuted around the stem of the implant; prosthesis is always loose and fracture is inherently unstable
- type II: oblique fractures around stem; fracture pattern is stable, but prosthetic loosening ia usually present
- type III: transverse fracture at the level of the tip of the stem; fracture is unstable, but prosthetic fixation is usually unaffected
- type IV: fracture distal to the implant; fracture is unstable, but prosthetic fixation is usually unaffected
