To evaluate the radiographic long-term result of femoral revision hip arthroplasty using impacted cancellous allograft combined with cemented, collarless, polished and tapered stem. Among 28 patients with impacted cancellous allograft with a cemented stem, 28 hips from 26 consecutive patients were analyzed retrospectively. The average patient age was 59 years. The follow-up period ranged 9 years 6 months to 14 years 5 months (mean, 12, 5 years). Radiographic parameters analyzed in this study included subsidence of the stem in the cement, subsidence of the cement mantle in the femur, bone remodeling of the femur, radiolucent line, and osteolysis.Purpose
Materials and methods
This studyevaluated the results of the acetabular medial wall osteotomy to reconstruct the acetabulum in dysplastic hip during total hip athroplasty. A total of 30 hips of 30 patients who underwent THA between March 1999 and October 2002 were clinically and radiogically evaluated. The average age at the time of operation was 46.5 years (range: 17 to 73 years), and the mean follow-up period was 5 years (range: 5.3 to 8.7 years). 26 cases, a cementless hemispherical acetabular cup and 4 cases, reinforced ring were inserted in the true acetabulum. Only 2 hips needed structural bone graft.Purpose
Materials and Methods
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the clinical outcomes and and radiological findings of primary total hip arthroplasty(THA) performed by using cemented polished femoral stem. We retrospectively reviewed 91 hips (84 patients) that had undergone primary THA with cemented polished femoral stem after follow-up more than 10 years. The mean age at surgery was 57 years old (47 to 75). Mean follow up period was 12. 8 years(10.1 to 14). Clinical evaluation was performed using Harris hip score. The radiographic evaluation was performed in terms of the cementing technique, including of subsidence within the cement mantle, radiolucent lines at the cement-bone or cement-stem interface, cortical hypertrophy, and calcar resorption.Purpose
Materials and Methods
To evaluate the radiographic mid-to long-term result of femoral revision hip arthroplasty using impacted cancellous allograft combined with cemented, collarless, polished and tapered stem. Among 27 patients with impacted cancellous allograft with a cemented stem, 28 hips from 26 consecutive patients were analyzed retrospectively. The average patient age was 59 years. The follow-up period ranged 36 months to 10 years, 3 months (mean, 76.6 months). Radiographic parameters analyzed in this study included subsidence of the stem in the cement, subsidence of the cement mantle in the femur, bone remodeling of the femur, radiolucent line, and osteolysis. Radiographic analysis showed very stable stem initially. 27 stems showed minimal subsidence (less than 0.005m) and 1 stem showed moderate subsidence (about 0.008m) in the cement. But there was no mechanical failure and subsidence at the composite-femur interface. Evidence of cortical and trabecular remodeling were observed in all cases. No radiolucent line or osteolysis were found in the follow-up period. There were 4 proximal femoral cracks and 1 distal femoral splitting during operation. The result of cemented stem revision with the use of impacted cancellous allograft was good mid-to long-term. And femoral bone stock deficiency may be reconstructed successfully.
