BACKGROUND This study was conducted to examine the recovery times following cemented or uncemented total hip arthroplasty for patients with avascular necrosis of the femoral head and to examine the clinical and functional outcomes of cemented versus uncemented total hip replacements in patients with this agonizing condition. METHODS This was a 17-month study that took place in a hospital setting and involved 30 patients with hip joint arthritis brought on by avascular necrosis of the femoral head. The patients gave written informed consent and the approval of the institutional ethics committee before being referred to the Department of Orthopedics at the Princes Esra Hospital/Deccan College of Medical Sciences, Hyderabad, Telangana, India. RESULTS Before surgery, the mean functional gait score was 10.53±6.96, and after surgery, it was 30.33±2.31. Prior to surgery, the functional activity score was 5.17±1.62, and following surgery, it was 11.40±1.07. The study group's preoperative and postoperative scores showed statistically significant variation. The average Harris hip score was 32.27±8.11 before surgery and 92.60±3.16 after surgery. The differences in scores before and after surgery were statistically significant. Before surgery, the study group's mean ROM score was 2.40±1.25, and after surgery, it was 4.63±0.49. In the preoperative and postoperative phases, there was a statistically significant difference in ROM evaluations. CONCLUSION The current generation of uncemented implants used in total hip replacement for AVNcaused hip arthritis yields, satisfactory clinical and radiological outcomes after a reasonable period of follow-up. Despite a few problems with the course of treatment, functional and clinical outcomes have been good to exceptional overall. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
