The feasibility of bone transport with bone substitute and the factors which are essential for a successful bone transport are unknown. We studied six groups of 12 Japanese white rabbits. Groups A to D received cylindrical autologous bone segments and groups E and F
The aim of this study was to report the three-year follow-up for a series of 400 patients with a displaced intracapsular fracture of the hip, who were randomized to be treated with either a cemented polished tapered hemiarthroplasty or an uncemented hydroxyapatite-coated hemiarthroplasty. The mean age of the patients was 85 years (58 to 102) and 273 (68%) were female. Follow-up was undertaken by a nurse who was blinded to the hemiarthroplasty that was used, at intervals for up to three years from surgery. The short-term follow-up of these patients at a mean of one year has previously been reported.Aims

We report on 397 consecutive revision total hip
replacements in 371 patients with a mean clinical and radiological follow-up
of 12.9 years (10 to 17.7). The mean age at surgery was 69 years
(37 to 93). A total of 28 patients (8%) underwent further revision,
including 16 (4%) femoral components. In all 223 patients (56%,
233 hips) died without further revision and 20 patients (5%, 20
hips) were lost to follow-up. Of the remaining patients, 209 (221
hips) were available for clinical assessment and 194 (205 hips)
for radiological review at mean follow-up of 12.9 years (10 to 17.7). The mean Harris Hip Score improved from 58.7 (11 to 92) points
to 80.7 (21 to 100) (p <
0.001) and the mean Merle d’Aubigné and
Postel hip scores at final follow-up were 4.9 (2 to 6), 4.5 (2 to
6) and 4.3 (2 to 6), respectively for pain, mobility and function.
Radiographs showed no lucencies around 186 (90.7%) femoral stems
with stable bony ingrowth seen in 199 stems (97%). The survival
of the S-ROM femoral stem at 15 years with revision for any reason as
the endpoint was 90.5% (95% confidence interval (CI) 85.7 to 93.8)
and with revision for aseptic loosening as the endpoint 99.3% (95%
CI 97.2 to 99.8). We have shown excellent long-term survivorship and good clinical

In rabbits and goats, test implants with a porous surface of two layers of Tl-6A;-4V beads were examined at intervals for bond strength with bone. Half of the implants were coated with
The primary aim of this trial was to compare the subsidence of two similar hydroxyapatite-coated titanium femoral components from different manufacturers. Secondary aims were to compare rotational migration (anteversion/retroversion and varus/valgus tilt) and patient-reported outcome measures between both femoral components. Patients were randomized to receive one of the two femoral components (Avenir or Corail) during their primary total hip arthroplasty between August 2018 and September 2020. Radiostereometric analysis examinations at six, 12, and 24 months were used to assess the migration of each implanted femoral component compared to a baseline assessment. Patient-reported outcome measures were also recorded for these same timepoints. Overall, 50 patients were enrolled (62% male (n = 31), with a mean age of 65.7 years (SD 7.3), and mean BMI of 30.2 kg/m2 (SD 5.2)).Aims

Impacted morsellised allografts have been used successfully to address the problem of poor bone stock in revision surgery. However, there are concerns about the transmission of pathogens, the high cost and the shortage of supply of donor bone. Bone-graft extenders, such as tricalcium phosphate (TCP) and
The aim of this study was to compare the cost-effectiveness of cemented hemiarthroplasty (HA) versus hydroxyapatite-coated uncemented HA for the treatment of displaced intracapsular hip fractures in older adults. A within-trial economic evaluation was conducted based on data collected from the World Hip Trauma Evaluation 5 (WHiTE 5) multicentre randomized controlled trial in the UK. Resource use was measured over 12 months post-randomization using trial case report forms and participant-completed questionnaires. Cost-effectiveness was reported in terms of incremental cost per quality-adjusted life year (QALY) gained from the NHS and personal social service perspective. Methodological uncertainty was addressed using sensitivity analysis, while decision uncertainty was represented graphically using confidence ellipses and cost-effectiveness acceptability curves.Aims
