Abstract
- <bold>Background: </bold>The rise in total hip arthroplasty (THA) has led to a concomitant increase in revision THAs. Tracking implant performance therefore remains a significant element of scientific inquiry to garner and maintain public trust in this procedure. There are few available reports of outcomes of a single manufacturer's total hip system outside registry data.<bold>Methods: </bold>We performed a retrospective review of a prospectively generated database to evaluate outcomes of a single manufacturer's femoral stem and acetabular shell for THA. We report the functional outcomes, revision data, and survivorship for this total hip system.<bold>Results: </bold>A total of 1942 primary THAs were implanted into 1672 patients. There were of 57 revisions. There were no cases of acetabular failure at 10-year follow-up. All functional outcome scores demonstrated significant improvements following THA. Kaplan-Meier survival analysis for all-cause revisions demonstrated 2-year implant survival of 97.6% (95% confidence interval [CI], 96.9-98.3), 5-year implant survival of 97.3% (95% CI, 96.5-98.1), and 10-year implant survival of 97.0% (95% CI, 96.0-98.0). When infection was excluded, implant survivorship improved to 99.2% (95% CI, 98.8-99.6) at 2 years, 98.9% (95% CI, 98.5-99.4) at 5 years, and 98.7% (95% CI, 98.1-99.4) at 10 years.<bold>Conclusion: </bold>This THA implant system comprising an uncemented press-fit acetabulum used alongside a triple-tapered femoral stem is an excellent option for THA. Implant survivorship at 2, 5, and 10 years is among the best reported for any total hip system in the world. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
