AbstractIn this paper we present our 3- to 5-year results after hybrid total hip replacement using the cementless porous coated Harris-Galante acetabular component and the cemented Griss femoral component in 39 patients with 40 implantations. Postoperatively, mild to moderate pain was experienced by 16.1% of patients, mostly following hard activity. A slight to moderate limp occurred in 24.2%. All patients were able to walk more than 1000 m. Full-time use of support was required by 2.8%. The postoperative range of motion was increased in 93.9%. Radiographically, none of the acetabular or femoral components had to be classified as unstable. Only one acetabular component displayed complete (i.e., along all interface zones) radiolucency and was therefore classified as possibly unstable.
