[2- to 7-year results of cement-free and cemented joint

Aktuelle Traumatologie · Aug 1994

Comparative Study

[2- to 7-year results of cement-free and cemented joint replacement in femoral neck fractures and coxarthrosis].

In 43 patients with cementless and 43 patients with cemented hip prosthesis (S+G hip system) a clinical and radiological follow up was performed 2-7 years after total hip replacement. In average the follow up period was 43 or 48 months. ⋯ In conclusion of our results and the expected later results after 10 years follow up we prefer the cementless fixation in patients under 60 years and cemented fixation in the group over 70 years. Patients between 60 and 70 years seems to benefit from a fixation with an cementless acetabular component and an cemented stem (hybrid prosthesis).

AbstractIn 43 patients with cementless and 43 patients with cemented hip prosthesis (S+G hip system) a clinical and radiological follow up was performed 2-7 years after total hip replacement. In average the follow up period was 43 or 48 months. We found good or excellent results in 88% after cementless and 95% after cemented fixation. The results after cementless hip replacement were caused by loosening in the early postoperative period in 3 cases and more frequently thigh pain. In conclusion of our results and the expected later results after 10 years follow up we prefer the cementless fixation in patients under 60 years and cemented fixation in the group over 70 years. Patients between 60 and 70 years seems to benefit from a fixation with an cementless acetabular component and an cemented stem (hybrid prosthesis).
