Survivorship of total hip replacements

Abstract: The survivorship of total hip replacements in patients operated on at the Royal National Orthopaedic Hospital has been analysed using standard actuarial methods. Between 1963 and 1972 173 metal-on-metal prostheses of various developmental designs were inserted. Between 1969 and 1972 248 prostheses of one design using a metal femoral component and plastic cup were used. The patients were surveyed retrospectively and for each the actual follow-up period was determined as well as the eventual outcome. The criteri… Show more

“…Two of the 28 mm cups showed osteolysis. This difference was statistically not 10. In respect to whether the femoral head was made of metal or ceramic no difference in the occurrence of osteolysis was observed.…”

“…Only 1 (not revised) of the 14 cups showing osteolysis was fixed by two additional screws. Cumulative survivorship for this cup type between 12 and 13 years is 0.94 according to Dobbs [10].…”

“…Dobbs introduced the Kaplan-Meier univariate analysis for hip prostheses in 1980, and it has been used ever since to evaluate the survivorship of endoprostheses [2]. It has been regarded as a valid technique for long-term evaluation of joint prostheses, although many patients are lost to follow-up, assumptions on the outcome of lost patients are done, and the interpretations are increasingly uncertain at the tail-end of curves [3,5].…”

“…Heterotopic calcifications were observed in 42% of the patients (n = 56) and were described using Brooker's classification [6,8,15]. They reported a discrete calcification without the need for revision (Brooker I or II).…”
