Outcome in design-specific comparisons between highly crosslinked and conventional polyethylene in total hip arthroplasty
Background and purpose - Most registry studies regarding highly crosslinked polyethylene (XLPE) have focused on the overall revision risk. We compared the risk of cup and/or liner revision for specific cup and liner designs made of either XLPE or conventional polyethylene (CPE), regarding revision for any reason and revision due to aseptic loosening and/or osteolysis. Patients and methods - Usi...
متن کاملThe final follow-up plain radiograph is sufficient for clinical evaluation of polyethylene wear in total hip arthroplasty
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Radiostereometric analysis (RSA) is a highly accurate tool for assessment of polyethylene (PE) wear in total hip arthroplasty (THA); however, PE wear measurements in clinical studies are often limited to plain radiographs. We evaluated the agreement between PE wear measured with PolyWare software, which uses plain radiographs, and by model-based RSA, which uses stereo rad...
متن کاملTotal hip replacement using a highly crosslinked polyethylene liner in Asians with small acetabulum.
PURPOSE To evaluate the medium-term outcomes of total hip replacement (THR) using a thin highly cross-linked polyethylene (HXLPE) liner in an Asian population. METHODS Medical records of 20 men and 44 women aged 26 to 80 (mean, 59) years who underwent 80 THRs using a thin HXLPE liner by a single surgeon were reviewed. Indications for THR included dysplasia (n = 26), avascular necrosis (n=26),...
متن کاملCross-linked versus conventional polyethylene for total hip replacement: a meta-analysis of randomised controlled trials.
We conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis of randomised controlled trials comparing cross-linked with conventional polyethylene liners for total hip replacement in order to determine whether these liners reduce rates of wear, radiological evidence of osteolysis and the need for revision. The MEDLINE, EMBASE and COCHRANE databases were searched from their inception to May 2010 for all t...
متن کاملPolyethylene wear in total hip arthroplasty.
Polyethylene wear increasingly has been blamed for osteolysis and granuloma formation after total joint arthroplasty. The authors evaluated the wear difference between bearing surfaces of stainless steel, cobalt chrome, and titanium alloy. They also compared cemented all-polyethylene molded cups with cemented metal-backed molded acetabular cups. These were compared with molded and machined poly...
