Insights
This study reviews 63 total hip replacements using the Ring method. Results show 84.1% excellent or good outcomes, indicating effectiveness for hip joint replacement.
Area of Science:
- Orthopedic surgery
- Biomedical engineering
Background:
- Total hip replacement (THR) is a common procedure for severe hip joint damage.
- The Ring prosthesis is one surgical technique for hip arthroplasty.
Purpose of the Study:
- To evaluate the clinical outcomes of total hip replacement using the Ring method.
- To assess the long-term efficacy and safety of the Ring hip prosthesis.
Main Methods:
- A retrospective review of 63 total hip replacement cases using the Ring method.
- Patient follow-up ranged from 6 months to 5 years.
- Outcomes were assessed based on functional results and complication rates.
Main Results:
- Excellent results were reported in 33.3% of cases.
- Good results were observed in 50.8% of cases.
- Fair results were seen in 9.5%, and poor results in 6.4% of cases, totaling 84.1% excellent or good outcomes.
Conclusions:
- The Ring method for total hip replacement demonstrates a high success rate, with over 84% of patients achieving excellent or good outcomes.
- The study discusses the specific advantages and disadvantages of the Ring prosthesis in clinical practice.
Abstract:
The results of total replacement of the hip joint ad modum Ring are presented. The review includes 63 hips (from among the total number of cases operated by the various methods) followed up for periods ranging from 6 months to 5 years. The assessment has shown excellent results in 33.3 per cent, good results in 50.8 per cent, fair in 9.5 per cent and poor results in 6.4 per cent. Advantages and disadvantages of the method are discussed.
