A Method for the Comparative Evaluation of the Initial Stability of Cementless Hip Prostheses
Chapter
Abstract
The major problems and causes for revision in total hip arthroplasty are mechanical loosening of the acetabular and femoral component, infection and implant fracture. Stauffer (15), in a ten-year evaluation of 333 total hip replacements, found a 29.9% incidence of roentgenographic femoral and an 11.3% incidence of acetabular component loosening. Although these were early cases, other authors show similar trends in their long-term studies (10). With the development of cementless total hip prostheses, one hopes to alleviate these problems.
