Abstract
A short-stem femoral implant suitable for use in hip arthroplasty configured to self-stabilise against sliding across the endo-cortex when implanted in a subject's femur. The femoral implant includes a distal end configured to engage in abutment with the lateral endo-cortex of the subject's femur at two distal locations such that when implanted, the femoral implant has a reduced tendency for sliding across the endo-cortex.
