Early outcomes after revision total hip arthroplasty with a modern modular femoral revision stem in 65 consecutive cases.

ABSTRACT:

Background

We evaluated the early outcomes, including all-cause revisions, aseptic revisions, and reoperations after revision total hip arthroplasty (THA) using a single modern modular femoral stem design.

Methods

A retrospective cohort study on a consecutive series of 62 patients (65 hips) who underwent revision THA with a modern modular femoral stem system, between January 2011 and October 2015, at a single academic medical center was performed. A cumulative incidence competing risk model was used to evaluate the cumulative incidence of failure with death as the competing risk.

Results

The cumulative incidence rate of all-cause revision THA was 14.5% (95% confidence interval [CI], 6%-24%) at 2 years when accounting for the competing risk of death. The rate of asepti
