This study aimed to compare the change in health-related quality
of life of patients receiving a traditional cemented monoblock Thompson
hemiarthroplasty compared with a modern cemented modular polished-taper
stemmed hemiarthroplasty for displaced intracapsular hip fractures. This was a pragmatic, multicentre, multisurgeon, two-arm, parallel
group, randomized standard-of-care controlled trial. It was embedded
within the WHiTE Comprehensive Cohort Study. The sample size was
964 patients. The setting was five National Health Service Trauma
Hospitals in England. A total of 964 patients over 60 years of age who
required hemiarthroplasty of the hip between February 2015 and March
2016 were included. A standardized measure of health outcome, the
EuroQol (EQ-5D-5L) questionnaire, was carried out on admission and
at four months following the operation.Aims

Aims. The aim of this study was to report the initial results of the
Exeter V40 stem, which became available in 2000. Patients and Methods. A total of 540 total hip arthroplasties (THAs) were performed
in our unit using this stem between December 2000 and May 2002.
Our routine protocol is to review patients postoperatively and at
one, five, and ten years following surgery. Results. A total of 145 patients (26.9%) died before ten years and of
the remaining 395 stems, 374 (94.7%) remain in situ.
A total of 21 well-fixed stems (5.3%) were revised. Ten were exchanged
using a cement-in-cement technique to facilitate acetabular revision.
Three were revised for infection, one for instability, one for fracture
of the stem, and six following a periprosthetic fracture. An additional
16 acetabular components (4.1%) were revised; five for aseptic loosening
and 11 for instability. There were no revisions for aseptic loosening of the stem, and
no evidence of aseptic loosening in any hip. The fate of every stem
is known and all patients remain under review. Survivorship, with
revision of the stem for aseptic loosening as the endpoint, was
100%. At 13.5 years, the Kaplan–Meier survival rate for all-cause
revision of the stem was 96.8% (95% confidence interval (CI) 94.8
to 98.8) and all-cause revision (including acetabular revision,
infection, and instability) was 91.2% (95% CI 88.3 to 94.1). Conclusion. No stem was revised for aseptic loosening in this series. The

Exeter Universal total hip arthroplasties (350 patients) operated
on at a mean age of 66.3 years (17 to 94). Patients and Methods. All patients received the same design of femoral component, regardless
of the original diagnosis. Previous surgery had been undertaken
for 33 hips (8.6%). During the study period 218 patients with 236
hips (62%) died, 42 hips (11%) were revised and 110 hips (29%) in
96 patients were available for review. The acetabular components
were varied and some designs are now obsolete, however they were
all cemented. Results. With an endpoint of revision for aseptic loosening or lysis,
survivorship of the stem at 22.8 years was 99.0% (95% confidence
interval (CI) 97.0 to 100). One stem was revised 21 years post-operatively
in a patient with Gaucher’s disease and proximal femoral osteolysis.
Survivorship with aseptic loosening or lysis of the acetabular component or
stem as the endpoint at 22.8 years was 89.3% (95% CI 84.8 to 93.8).
With an endpoint of revision for any reason, overall survivorship
was 82.9% (95% CI 77.4 to 88.4) at 22.8 years. Radiological review showed excellent preservation of bone stock
at 20 to 25 years, and no impending failures of the stem. Conclusion. The

A complete cement mantle is important for the longevity of a total hip replacement. In the minimally-invasive direct anterior approach used at the Innsbruck University hospital, the femoral component has to be inserted into the femoral canal by an angulated movement.
