Cementless bipolar hemiarthroplasty in a patient with PMF: a case report

: Myelofibrosis is a myeloproliferative disease that falls under a group of bone marrow malignancies known as myeloproliferative neoplasms. It manifests with splenomegaly, anemia, leukocytosis and, less commonly, bone pain. Ruxolitinib, Janus kinase inhibitor, has been shown to increase survival, to improve symptoms and has the potential to decrease osteosclerotic changes. Herein, we present a case of primary myelofibrosis (PMF) in a 60-year-old female who presented with 8-month history of progressive left hip pain and later was diagnosed with pathological neck of femur fracture that was treated with cementless hemiarthroplasty. In conclusion, the use of cementless implants in hip arthroplasty in the presence of PMF has shown to be an effective and safe choice.
