Survival after contemporary solid organ transplant (SOT) is increasing, and demand for total hip arthroplasty (THA) among SOT recipients is rising accordingly. The purpose of this study is to compare the perioperative outcomes and short-term implant- and patient-survivorship of contemporary THA following the most common types of SOT. Among SOT recipients, 119 primary THAs (92 patients, 39% female) were performed at a single institution from 2000–2020 and were retrospectively reviewed at a mean follow-up of 3.6yrs. Revisions, conversion to THA and multiple organs transplanted were excluded. The most common SOT was renal (39%), followed by lung (34%), liver (18%) and heart (8%). Demographics, peri-operative outcomes, 90-day re-admissions, re-operations and mortality were compared between SOT groups using chi-squared, Fisher's exact, Wilcoxon tests and Cox proportional hazard ratios.Introduction
