It needs not to be removed. Be under the care of the surgeon who operated on you.

Cement need to stay. Implant removal is subject to any issue developing due to it.

If no problem, no need to remove it.. If severe pain, infection, or walking problem.. then removal is required after doctor's consultancy.
