The study aimed to compare the three types of bearings in clinical and radiological outcomes. The results taken at 2,5,and 7 years revealed that MoM group had the lowest Harris Hips scores, higher rates of revision, and higher incidence of radiolucent lines in unrevised hips.

مؤشر الهشاشة هو أداة تساعد في تفسير النتائج المهمة، وتوفر مقياسًا لقوة النتيجة. ويمثل مؤشر الهشاشة عدد الأحداث المتتالية التي يجب إضافتها إلى نتيجة ثنائية التفرع لجعل النتيجة غير مهمة. يمثل الرقم الصغير نتيجة أضعف ويمثل الرقم الكبير نتيجة أقوى.
لماذا كانت هناك حاجة لهذه الدراسة الآن؟
Metasul metal-on-metal (MoM) articulation has shown lower wear rates than metal-on-polyethylene (MoP) bearings in Total Hip Replacement (THR), especially when used in cementless fixation. However, some evidence has reported that cemented MoM articualtions using 28 mm bearing have high rates of radiolucent lines (RLLs) and aseptic loosening. Hence, this RCT aimed to compare cemented Metasul MOM bearing with MoP and ceramic-on-polyethylene (CoP) bearings.
ما هو سؤال البحث الرئيسي؟
How do long term outcomes, such as incidences of radiolucent lines (RLLs), rate of revision, and clinical results, compare between cemented Metasul MoM, MoP, and ceramic-on-polyethylene (CoP) bearings used in total hip replacement?
- No difference was found in mean abduction angle (p=0.69) and HHS (p=0.104) at 7 years in 341 hips (86%) between the three bearing types.
- MoM hips had higher incidences of peri-acetabular radiolucent lines of greater and equal to 2mm (p<0.001),
- 12 revisions were performed, 8 in the MoM group, 3 in the MoP group and 1 in the CoP group. There was a significant difference in the number of revisions between the MoM and Mop/Cop groups (p<0.001).
- No aseptic loosening was seen in the MoP and CoP groups.
- 4infections occurred in the MoM group compared with 1 infection in the MoP group and 1 infection in the CoP group.
ما الذي يجب أن أتذكره أكثر؟
The trial indicated that at a 7 year follow up period, cemented metal-on-metal bearings resulted in higher incidence of radioluscent lines around the acetabular component than metal-on-polyethylene and ceramic-on-polyethylene bearings. The metal-on-metal bearing also required higher revision rates and had lower Harris Hip scores.
كيف سيؤثر ذلك على رعاية مرضاي؟
The study suggests that patients with 28 mm Metasul metal-on-metal bearing should be followed with caution when compared to the other implants used. It is unclear how these results may be applied to other metal on metal implants. Continuing surveillance of the outcomes of differing implant designs and bearing surfaces is warranted.
