Our study shows that patients with halo traction less frequently had a vertebral body resection, but achieved comparable deformity correction.

Cementless total hip arthroplasty with use of a second-generation, extensively porous-coated stem demonstrated durable fixation in an active, younger population at a minimum follow-up of ten years and had better survivorship with respect to fixation compared with our previously reported cemented cohort.

Of functional tools measured, only pedometer data correlated with THA polyethylene wear. Obtaining pedometer data should be considered when trying to distinguish differences in various hip arthroplasty designs and techniques over the long term.
