About

It's to investigate the efficacy of Zoledronic acid treatment on the early prosthetic fixation in post-menopausal osteoporosis women under cementless total hip arthroplasty after 24-month observation.

Full description

To investigate the efficacy of Zoledronic acid and placebo treatment on the prosthetic transverse translation in post-menopausal osteoporosis women under cementless total hip arthroplasty by Radiostereometry (RSA)in two-year follow-up period .

Meanwhile to assess efficacy of Zoledronic acid treatment on the vertical translation of acetabulum and the subsidence translation of femoral stem by Radiostereometry(RSA), prevention of peri- prosthetic bone loss by observing the local average bone mineral density ( BMD ) changes for 7 femoral region Gruen zones through Dual Energy X-ray Absorptiometry (DXA)scans, et al.
