She was treated with a total hip arthroplasty using a monoblock revision stem and a strut allograft to provide adjunctive mechanical and biological support. At the final follow-up, the patient had no pain, the stem was well fixed, and the allograft strut had incorporated; however, a persistent fracture line was noted.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusion:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>When an atypical femur fracture coexists with hip osteoarthritis, total hip arthroplasty may be a reasonable treatment option to address the fracture and concomitant hip osteoarthritis with a single surgical intervention.
