Minimum 5-year results in 96 consecutive hips treated with a tapered titanium stem system.
Journal of Arthroplasty 2010 January
We performed total hip arthroplasty with single titanium stem in 96 consecutive, nonselected hips. All patients, regardless of bone type and shape, neck shaft angulation, or age, received the same implant. Patients were followed for a minimum of 5 years, and an independent radiographer evaluated the hips for ingrowth, subsidence, leg-length discrepancy, and remodeling. The average Harris Hip score was 96 points (range, 73-100 points) at final follow-up. Radiographically, all stems were ingrown. No stem had more than 3 mm of subsidence, and there were no leg-length discrepancies more than 5 mm. We concluded that this titanium stem is a versatile option for total hip arthroplasty in patients with a wide variety of demographic and femur characteristics.
