Notching of the femoral stem neck in metal-on-metal total hip replacement: a case report.
نویسندگان
چکیده
We report a case of impingement in a metal-on-metal total hip replacement causing both notching of the femoral stem neck and aseptic loosening of the acetabular component. The acetabular component was inserted in excessive anteversion. The femoral stem and acetabular components were retrieved. A larger femoral head was used, and an acetabular component was placed in a less anteverted position. Intra-operative testing through different ranges of movement is recommended to identify potential impingement.

The new generation of metal-on-metal hip resurfacing is becoming an increasingly popular alternative to total hip replacement in the younger and more active patient. Mid-term survivorship figures for osteoarthritic patients are comparable to that of patients receiving a total hip arthroplasty. However, individuals receiving a hip resurfacing for aetiologies other than OA, such as avascular necr...
متن کاملSurface Replacement of Hip Joint
Surface hip replacement more commonly known as hip resurfacing arthroplasty is a type of a hip replacement that is different to a total hip replacement. In a total hip replacement femoral head and neck are removed and a metal stem is inserted to the femoral shaft. In hip resurfacing articular surface is shaved and a metal cap (Fig 1) is inserted preserving most of the bone in femoral head and n...

The use of metal-on-metal bearing surfaces for total hip arthroplasty increased dramatically in the past decade for a variety of reasons, including the advantage of using larger-diameter femoral heads to reduce instability. However, recent research suggesting negative outcomes and high failure rates associated with some of these implants has decreased their use. Further, the use of larger-diame...

Metal-on-metal hip resurfacing offers some potential for total hip arthroplasty (THA) in the young patient. However, short- and intermediate-term results of the currently available implants have failed to demonstrate advantage over conventional THA. The risks of femoral neck fracture or avascular necrosis have been disappointing early limitations of the procedure. The Australian Joint Registry ...

Metal-on-metal hip resurfacing arthroplasty is increasingly popular for younger patients with advanced hip disease. Intra-operative or immediate postoperative femoral neck fracture after metal-on-metal hip resurfacing is a well-described technical complication, ranging from 0% to 1.5%. We report 2 cases of late femoral neck fracture occurring 8 and 15 months following the index operation, with ...
