THA: Stem migration and bone loss similar in cementless vs. cemented femoral components .
OrthoEvidence Journal (OE Journal) - ACE Report
OE Journal. 2013;1(6):26 Acta Orthop. 2012 Dec;83(6):592-8. doi: 10.3109/17453674.2012.742393. Epub 2012 Nov 151 patients, including 52 hips, undergoing treatment for osteoarthritis were randomized to receive either reverse hybrid (cemented polyethylene cup with cementless femoral stem) or conventional cemented total hip replacement (both components cemented) to determine if there was a difference in outcome between the techniques. Clinical outcome, wear, component migration and bone remodeling were recorded over 2 years postoperatively. The results showed that there were no major differences between the two procedures. This study indicated that the reverse hybrid procedure does not provide improved outcomes when compared to the conventional cemented method in total hip replacement.

Der Fragilitätsindex ist ein Instrument, das bei der Interpretation signifikanter Ergebnisse hilft und ein Maß für die Stärke eines Ergebnisses liefert. Der Fragilitätsindex gibt die Anzahl der aufeinanderfolgenden Ereignisse an, die zu einem dichotomen Ergebnis hinzugefügt werden müssen, damit das Ergebnis nicht mehr signifikant ist. Eine kleine Zahl steht für ein schwächeres Ergebnis und eine große Zahl für ein stärkeres Ergebnis.
Warum wurde diese Studie jetzt benötigt?
The Swedish Hip Arthroplasty and Norwegian Arthroplasty Registers have shown increased use of reverse hybrid technique (cemented polyethylene cup with cementless femoral stem) in total hip replacement. This is in part is due to the observed improvement in survivability of the cementless stems with respect to component loosening. However, there has been concern regarding polyethylene wear induced by hydroxyapatite (HA) in HA-coated implants, commonly seen in reverse hybrid total hip replacements. Also, there has not been a study conducted that has shown that the reverse hybrid technique is superior to conventional cemented total hip replacement, indicating the need for this study.
Was war die wichtigste Forschungsfrage?
Does the reverse hybrid total hip replacement technique provide superiority to conventional cemented total hip replacement with respect to clinical results, wear, remodeling of the bone, component migration, or component loosening after 2 years?
- Similar improvements in Harris hip and Oxford hip scores were observed in both groups.
- There were no significant differences observed between groups in the amount of wear in the x- (p=0.9), y- (p=0.9), and z-axes (p=0.08), and the vectorial resultant 3D wear (p=0.7).
- Cup and stem component migration in any direction (x-, y-, or z-axes) were observed to not significantly differ between groups.
- Rotation of stem component did not significantly differ between groups. Rotation of cup component in the y- and z-axes was not significantly different between groups. Rotation of the cup component in the x-axis was -0.24 degrees (95%CI -0.55 to 0.07) in the RH group and 0.13 degrees (95%CI -0.08 to 0.34) and in the cemented group, resulting in significant difference (p=0.03).
- Bone remodeling around the cup was found to be similar between groups.
- Significant bone loss in Gruen Zone 1 of the femur was observed in the RH group (18%, 95%CI 11-24%) when compared to the cemented group (1.4%, 95%CI -3.2-5.9%) (p<0.001). Bone loss in remaining Gruen zones (2-7) was not significant between groups.
- There were no significant differences between groups for incidence of component loosening (p>0.05).
Was sollte ich mir besonders merken?
The use of a cementless stem in total hip replacement provided similar results to a cemented stem with regards to Harris hip and Oxford hip scores, wear, component migration/rotation, bone remodelling, and bone loss after 2 years. Although significantly higher bone loss in Gruen Zone 1 was associated with the cementless stems, it is unlikely that it is an important clinical finding due to the long-term survivability of the cementless stems.
Wie wird sich dies auf die Behandlung meiner Patienten auswirken?
There are no major differences between a cementless and a cemented femoral stem in total hip arthroplasty after 2 years. An extended study with a longer follow-up period is necessary to investigate any differences that may exist between the two techniques.
