Medium-term results of LPS thigh bone replacement
Part of Bones, joints & muscles clinical trials.
This study looks at how well the LPS™ system works for replacing the lower part of the thigh bone. It aims to find out the medium-term results for people who had this surgery.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You had surgery to replace the lower part of your thigh bone (distal femur) using the LPS system.
- You were not lost to follow-up within the first 3 months after surgery.
- Your surgery did not also involve replacing your shin bone (tibia) with the same system.
- Your surgery did not involve replacing your entire thigh bone with the LPS system.

This study looks at the best surgical option for an acute (new) fracture of the lower thigh bone near a stable knee replacement. It compares surgery that “fixes” the bone versus surgery that “replaces” part of the bone to help you walk again safely.
This trial studies whether using two implants works better than one to stabilize a break in the lower part of the thigh bone. It focuses on people who can get surgery quickly after arriving at the hospital and who can be followed for a full year.
This study looks back at patients who had surgery to replace the top part of the thigh bone after a bone sarcoma. Researchers want to understand how well these surgeries worked over time.
This study tests a bone-anchored implant (directly attached to the thighbone) for people with a single leg amputation above the knee. It aims to see if this implant helps with pain, movement, and skin issues caused by a traditional socket prosthetic.
This study checks how well a specific type of hip replacement part (a titanium modular cup) is working 10 years after being implanted. It helps doctors understand the long-term success of the surgery.
This study checks how well a particular hip replacement stem (the PROFEMUR Preserve Classic Femoral Stem) and matching parts keep working over many years. You may be invited if you had that exact hip replacement combination and can return for long-term checkups.
