Long-term results of a hydroxyapatite-coated femoral component in total hip replacement

Abstract: Between 1986 and 1991 we implanted 331 consecutive Furlong hydroxyapatite-coated femoral components of a total hip replacement in 291 patients. A cemented acetabular prosthesis was used in 217 hips and a hydroxyapatite-coated component in 114. We describe the long-term clinical and radiological survival of the femoral component at a mean follow-up of 17.5 years (15 to 21). Only two patients (0.68%) were lost to follow-up. With revision of the femoral component for any reason as the endpoint, the survival at a … Show more

“…No other THA concept has this kind of result on THA stability, not even large head diameter metal-on-metal or ceramic-onceramic THA series. (Tables 1 and 2) If we compare our series to other cementless THA series [8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17], or cemented THA series [19][20][21][22], our series survival rate was similar. Mean global cementless THA survival rate was less than 80% at 15 years (from 76 to 88%).…”

“…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].…”

“…Over the past 25 years, this has proved to be an effective technique in hip reconstructive surgery. 2 However, it has proved less successful in preventing revision surgery than PMMA in elderly patients undergoing total hip replacement or in ensuring reliable long-term survival of joint replacements in other anatomical locations such as the knee or ankle. 3,4 One method to potentially improve implant fixation and reduce the rate of revision surgery is through the development of a new generation of coatings with the ability to deliver osteostimulative agents to the bone-implant interface.…”
