ARTHROPLASTY
2026 AAHKS Annual Meeting: DISTINCT RCT: Dual Mobility vs. Conventional Total Hip Arthroplasty in Femoral Neck Fractures
OrthoEvidence Journal (OE Journal) - ACE Report
Epub Ahead of Print
2440 patients aged over 50 years undergoing total hip arthroplasty (THA) for femoral neck fractures (FNF) were randomized by hospital to receive dual mobility (DM) THA (n=1228) or conventional THA (n=1212). The primary outcome was revision surgery at 2 years, including all-cause revision and revision for dislocation, infection, fracture, or loosening. Outcomes were assessed up to 2 years postoperatively. Overall, the results revealed no significant differences between DM and conventional THA in all-cause revision, revision for dislocation, or revision for fracture. These findings suggested that DM THA did not provide additional protection against revision surgery compared with conventional THA in patients with FNF.
