Midterm to long-term follow-up study after hybrid total hip arthroplasty / 中华外科杂志

ABSTRACT

<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To evaluate clinical and radiographic results and influencing factors of hybrid total hip arthroplasty (THA).</p><p><b>METHODS</b>Totally 126 patients (135 hips) from January 1999 to December 2001 accepted hybrid THA were followed up. Components migration, periprosthetic bone changes, the polyethylene wear rate were measured radiologically. Kaplan-Meier analysis was performed to evaluate the survival of the acetabular and femoral components. End point was obvious radiological loosening or revision either or both of the acetabular and femoral components for aseptic loosening, infection or osteolysis debridement surgery.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>A total of 79 cases (85 hips) had been given follow-up. Using revision as the end point, the survival rate of acetabular was 95.2%, cemented femoral components was 98.8%. Using loosening as the end point for failure, the survival rate of acetabular was 97.6%, cemented femoral components was 100%.</p><p><b>CONCLUSIONS</b>The hybrid total hip prosthesis long-term survival rate was satisfactory, especially in the femoral side. As a result of third-cement technology, the long-term survival rate of the femoral components was close to the modern cementless prosthesis.</p>
