Hydroxyapatite-coated Femoral Components

Abstract: Hydroxyapatite-coated femoral components were introduced to enhance fixation, but concerns were raised about whether the coating would be maintained over time. We therefore determined the long-term clinical and radiographic results of a proximally hydroxyapatite-coated femoral component and compared the mechanical failure rate to other fixation methods at similar lengths of followup. The study group, culled from a large, multicenter prospective study population, consisted of 146 patients (166 hips) with follow… Show more

“…Second, we lacked an age-matched control group who underwent THA with uncemented stems of conventional length. However, a number of historical reports indicate such stems can be successfully implanted in older patients [9,10,25,32]. Third, radiographic analysis is inferior to roentgen stereophotogrammetric and dual-energy xray analysis in determining bone mass, remodeling, and component migration [11,23].…”

“…Stems of various designs provide stable initial and longterm fixation in patients who undergo THA [3,4,7,9,20,32,33,38]. Metaphyseal-engaging short stems provide theoretical benefits compared to conventional uncemented stems, including avoiding proximal-distal mismatch, decreasing proximal stress shielding, and limiting perioperative periprosthetic fractures.…”

“…Conventional cementless femoral stems are known to provide a high rate of satisfactory clinical and radiographic performance at long-term followups [1,7,12,14,15,18,33]. However, they may have potential clinical consequences related to stress shielding, thigh pain, periprosthetic fractures, proximodistal dimensional mismatch, and removal during revision [9, 11, 16, 17, 19, 21-23, 35, 38].…”

“…4,6,20,21 However, the results of clinical studies are divided, and some have reported that HA-coated femoral components had equal or better clinical results than uncoated femoral components in mid-and long-term follow-up periods. [22][23][24] Conversely, Goosen et al, after reviewing eight randomized controlled studies, concluded that HA coating had no positive effect when clinically and radiologically compared with porous surfaces. 7 In a metaanalysis, Gandhi et al also show that there are no clinical benefits in the use of HA/porous coating over porous coating alone in primary hip arthroplasty.…”
