Abstract:
Objective To evaluate mid-term(5-6 years)clinical and radiographic outcomes of cementless acetabular prosthesis in total hip arthroplasty(THA)and discuss the factors affecting postop- erative effect.Methods THA with cementless acetabular was used to treat 139 cases(148 hips)from January 1998 to May 1999.A retrospective study was done to analyze clinical effect and X-ray manifesta- tion of 109 cases(116 hips)that were followed up.Clinical evaluation was based on Harris hip score. The radiographical evaluation was performed according to orthotropia and lateral images of hip joint to ob- serve acetabular migration and bone changes around the hip and measure the polyethylene wear rate and direction of the acetabular polyethylene wear.Results The mean Harris score before operation was 44 points(10-70 points)but that after operation increased to 92.4 points(80-100 points)at latest follow up.Radiographical evaluation showed one hip with focal osteolysis,mean linear wear rate of 0.15 mm/ year and mean 10.4?for angle with vertical line.Abduction angel of the acetabula was mean 46?,with 10.5 mm for vertical distance and 8.7 mm for level distance.There was no revision of a fixed acetabulum component because of pelvic osteolysis secondary to polyethylene wear.No acetabular component was re- vised because of aseptic loosening or acetabular component migration at the latest follow up.Conclu- sions Cementless acetabular prosthesis in THA can successfully have good fixation.A long term follow up for cementless acetabular prosthesis is necessary because of potential factors like polyethylene wear and osteolysis.
