This study was performed to investigate the mid-term results of Ti-Nb-Sn (TNS) alloy stem with a low Young’s modulus. The current study using a new TNS alloy femoral stem showed good clinical outcomes at 3-year followup. Radiologically, there was no loosening or subsidence of the stem. The mild stress shielding was observed in 65% of patients.

Monoblock taper fluted stems have been reliably used to treat proximal femoral periprosthetic fractures (PFF) and femoral aseptic loosening (AL). Although proximal femoral remodeling has been observed around the Wagner Self-Locking (SL) stem, the exact characteristics of this process are yet to be established.
