ABSTRACT
PURPOSE:
This is a report on the outcomes associated with a consecutive series of 1,000 cementless hip arthroplasties utilizing the Bencox® hip stem–the first Korean-developed hip prosthesis. MATERIALS ANDMETHODS:
A consecutive series of 1,000 hip arthroplasties using the Bencox® hip stem were analyzed, starting from its initial release (September 2006) until June 2014. Patients in this consecutive series underwent surgery for fractures (n=552), arthritis (n=155), avascular necrosis (n=209), and revisions (n=84). Of these 1,000 cases, patients with a minimum follow-up of at least 1 year (n=616) were retrospectively analyzed for radiographic and clinical outcomes (i.e., Harris hip score). The stability of the prosthesis was evaluated by examining subsidence.RESULTS:
During the follow-up period (mean follow-up period of 54.8 months), there were 2 cases requiring revision of the femoral stem–both were caused by periprosthetic fractures and neither involved stem loosening. The mean Harris hip score during follow-up was 95.5. Bone ongrowth occurred in 95% of patients; no cases of subsidence or aseptic loosening of the stem were detected, and no cases of postoperative complications such as ceramic breakage were observed.CONCLUSION:
Clinical and radiographic evaluations of hip arthroplasty using the Bencox® hip stem revealed excellent outcomes with an average of 54.8 month follow-up in a consecutive series of 1,000 cases.
