چکیده

We reviewed 249 consecutive Charnley primary low-friction arthroplasties in 191 patients performed by one surgeon using a transtrochanteric approach at a minimum follow-up of ten years. Of these, 37 hips in 32 patients showed osteolysis and were compared with 41 hips in 37 matched patients with no osteolysis. We assessed in each case the wear rate, stability of the prosthesis, acetabular angle, socket angle, thickness of the acetabular and femoral cement mantle, canal flare index, femoral score, stem alignment, implant:canal ratio and stem:canal ratio. We found that a high rate of wear, component instability and osteolysis were associated. Osteolysis was three times more common in men than in women. Factors which reduced osteolysis were cement mantles of 6 mm at the acetabulum and of 3 mm in all zones of the femur, a stem:canal ratio of 60% to 70% and an implant:canal ratio of over 99%. The overall incidence of osteolysis was 14.9% but when these technical criteria were met, the incidence was 5.2%. This suggests that careful technique can dramatically reduce the risk of this complication.

Outcome of revision in comparison with primary total knee arthroplasty in Iran

 Abstract  Background: In the recent decade, many primary total knee arthroplasties have  been carried out in Iran and the number of revision cases is expected to rise with the  aging population. The aim of this study was to report the outcome of revision surgery  in the country and make a comparison between the outcome of revision and that of  the primary arthroplasty.  Methods: Retrospectivel...

Low-friction arthroplasty after fracture-dislocations of the hip.

Sixty-six patients are presented who have had a total hip replacement by the Charnley low-friction technique after injuries of the hip, the majority of which were fracture-dislocations. The clinical results of the arthroplasties in this relatively young group of patients are shown to be very good. The selection of young patients for total hip replacement arthroplasty is discussed.

Comparison of the Wrightington FC hip with the Charnley low-friction arthroplasty. 10- to 15-year results and survival analysis.

Between 1981 and 1986 two groups of patients received either Charnley low-friction arthroplasties or the Wrightington Frusto-Conical hip replacement with otherwise identical management before and after operation. There were 260 consecutive replacements in 215 patients in the first group and 260 consecutive procedures in 211 patients in the second. Both components of each design were cemented an...

Low-friction arthroplasty of the hip using alumina ceramic and cross-linked polyethylene. A 17-year follow-up report.

We report the results of our continued review of 11 total hip arthroplasties using 22.225 mm alumina ceramic femoral heads on a Charnley flanged stem, articulating with chemically cross-linked polyethylene. There was an initial bedding-in of up to 0.41 mm at the articular surface in the first two years. This had not progressed further, at a minimum follow-up of 15 years. Radiographically no fem...

Charnley low-friction arthroplasty: survival patterns to 38 years.

We studied survival to 38 years after Charnley low-friction arthroplasty of the hip. We used revision as an end-point, while adopting a policy of regular follow-up and early revision for radiological changes alone if indicated. Between November 1962 and June 2005, 22,066 primary low-friction arthroplasties (17,409 patients) had been performed at Wrightington Hospital by more than 330 surgeons. ...
