    Trochanteric osteotomy in total hip replacement (THR) did not increase complications but prolonged surgery. Mechanical failures were less common in the osteotomized group, suggesting its use in complex cases.

    Area of Science:

    • Orthopedic Surgery
    • Biomedical Engineering

    Background:

    • Total hip replacement (THR) is a common procedure for hip arthritis.
    • Trochanteric osteotomy is a surgical technique sometimes used during THR.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To compare the outcomes of primary total hip replacement with and without trochanteric osteotomy.
    • To evaluate the impact of trochanteric osteotomy on complications, operation time, and long-term mechanical failure.

    Main Methods:

    • A consecutive series of primary total hip replacements (THR) were analyzed.
    • 54 patients underwent THR with trochanteric osteotomy, and 78 patients underwent THR without it.
    • Follow-up was conducted at a minimum of 2.5 years postoperatively.

    Main Results:

    • No significant differences were found in intraoperative bleeding, early complications, or infection rates between the groups.
    • The osteotomized group experienced longer operation times.
    • Mechanical failure was more frequent in the non-osteotomized group.
    • Clinical outcomes were similar in both groups.

    Conclusions:

    • Trochanteric osteotomy in primary THR does not increase early complications or infection rates.
    • While it increases operation time, trochanteric osteotomy may reduce the risk of mechanical failure.
    • Consider trochanteric osteotomy for complicated THR cases or when surgical site accessibility is limited.
