Cemented acetabular components show limited improvement, with polyethylene wear being a key factor in loosening. Noncemented acetabular components offer promising results for total hip arthroplasty, representing the current state of the art.

Area of Science:

  • Orthopedic surgery
  • Biomaterials science
  • Arthroplasty research

Background:

  • Significant advancements in cemented femoral components contrast with stagnation in cemented acetabular component outcomes.
  • Polyethylene wear debris is identified as a primary cause of cemented acetabular component loosening.
  • Polyethylene thickness and femoral head size directly influence acetabular wear and loosening rates.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To review the current state of acetabular component technology in total hip arthroplasty.
  • To evaluate the efficacy and emerging trends in noncemented acetabular component fixation.
  • To discuss the advantages and disadvantages of different acetabular component designs and fixation methods.

Main Methods:

  • Review of current literature on cemented and noncemented acetabular components in total hip arthroplasty.

  • Analysis of factors influencing polyethylene wear and component loosening.
  • Evaluation of early clinical results and biomechanical principles of porous-coated hemispheric acetabular components.
  • Main Results:

    • Cemented acetabular components have shown minimal long-term result improvements.
    • Early outcomes for noncemented acetabular components, particularly porous-coated hemispheric designs, are encouraging.
    • Press-fitting oversized acetabular components without screws is a recent trend, potentially avoiding screw-related complications.

    Conclusions:

    • Noncemented acetabular components, especially porous-coated hemispheric types, are becoming the state of the art in total hip arthroplasty.
    • Minimizing polyethylene wear and optimizing component fixation are critical for long-term success.
    • The trend towards screwless fixation, like press-fitting, may offer advantages in acetabular component longevity.
