Summary

Hydroxyapatite-coated cups show promising results for acetabular revision surgery in patients with aseptic loosening. These implants demonstrated high bone ongrowth and excellent survival rates in a long-term study.

Background:

Aseptic loosening of acetabular components is a common complication after hip arthroplasty.
Revision surgery aims to restore function and stability, but faces challenges with bone defects.

Purpose of the Study:

To evaluate the clinical outcomes and survival rates of hydroxyapatite-coated uncemented hemispherical acetabular components in revision surgery.
To assess bone ongrowth and complication rates associated with these implants.

Main Methods:

A retrospective study of 72 patients undergoing acetabular revision with hydroxyapatite-coated uncemented hemispherical components.
Preoperative classification of acetabular defects using Paprosky and American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons criteria.

Radiographic assessment of bone ongrowth and clinical follow-up for complications and survival analysis.

Main Results:

Mean follow-up was 7.6 years.
Complications occurred in 9.6% of cases.
97.2% of components showed radiographic bone ongrowth.
Implant survival rate was 90.8% (any revision) and 98.1% (aseptic loosening).

Conclusions:

Hydroxyapatite-coated uncemented acetabular components demonstrate promising results for revision surgery.
These implants facilitate bone ongrowth and achieve high survival rates, reducing the need for re-revision.
