Results of uncemented porous-coated anatomic total hip replacement.

چکیده
We reviewed a consecutive series of 241 uncemented, porous-coated anatomic (PCA) hip replacements at an average follow-up of five years (2 to 9). Of these, 32 had failed (13%), 26 at the acetabular component (11%) and six at the femoral component (2%). Acetabular failure was associated with local osteolysis and excessive polyethylene wear in 20 cases: in these histological examination showed giant macrophages incorporating numerous particles of high-density polyethylene. The femoral failures were related to a poor intramedullary fit with subsequent subsidence. Using the recommendation for revision as the end point, the cumulative survival rate for prostheses was 91% at six years (95% CI +/- 6%), 73% (+/- 11%) at seven years, and 57% (+/- 20%) at eight years. The result of uncemented PCA hip replacement is satisfactory up to six years, but then increasing failure of the acetabular component appears to be due to polyethylene wear, leading to osteolysis, loosening and component migration. At first, failure is often asymptomatic; routine follow-up of uncemented hip replacement is essential, especially after five years.

Long-term results of the cementless porous-coated anatomic total hip prosthesis.
Between January 1984 and January 1986, 131 porous-coated anatomic total hip replacements were performed in 119 consecutive patients. Of these, 100 patients (110 hips) who were alive at a minimum of 18 years after replacement were included in the study. The mean age of the patients at surgery was 48.4 years and that of surviving patients at the latest follow-up was 67.8 years. The mean duration ...
متن کاملTwenty-year survival of a cementless revision hip arthroplasty using a press-fit bulk acetabular allograft for pelvic discontinuity: a case report.
Acetabular revision in a total hip arthroplasty (THA) with pelvic discontinuity is uncommon and challenging. Optimal management remains controversial, particularly with graft and implant selection. Interpretation of outcomes is confounded by the heterogeneity of patterns of bone loss and the lack of long-term results in great numbers for any given choice of treatment. We report a revision THA u...
متن کاملUltra-Short Versus Conventional Uncemented Stems for Hip Replacement in Octogenarians.
The aim of this study was to determine how an ultra-short anatomic uncemented stem vs a diaphyseal filling five-eighths porous coated uncemented femoral stem (conventional stem) affects the survival of primary total hip arthroplasties in octogenarians. The current study consisted of 52 patients (55 hips) in the ultra-short stem group (mean age, 85.5±5.3 years) and 61 patients (72 hips) in the d...
متن کاملBone density study of the proximal femur after hip arthroplasty with porous-coated implants
Progressive loss of bone mineral density around the femora! component of total hip replacement continues to pose a threat to long term prosthetic survival. A linear study was undertaken to measure bone mineral density on a monthly basis following total hip arthroplasty in 11 male patients. The opposite femur was used as the control measurement. Bone mineral density was unchanged at two mo...
متن کاملOsteolytic changes in the upper femoral shaft following porous-coated hip replacement.
Ten uncemented total hip replacements were performed in 1975 using an implant in which the cobalt-chrome femoral stem was coated to give a porous surface. In all but one case a high-density polyethylene head was used. The radiological changes in the upper femoral shafts were assessed between three and nine years later. Seven showed extensive stress-relieving changes, loss of calcar, stress frac...
