Larger 5-year migration but similar polyethylene wear of cementless hemispherical cups with electrochemically applied hydroxyapatite (BoneMaster) coating compared with porous plasma-spray titanium: a randomized 5-year RSA study.

ABSTRACT:

Background and purpose

BoneMaster (BM) is a thin electrochemically applied hydroxyapatite (HA) implant coating marketed with expectations of improved osseointegration properties but less polyethylene (PE) wear. We compared the midterm cup migration and PE wear of cementless porous-coated hemispherical cups with and without BM.

Patients and methods

In this patient-blinded, randomized controlled trial, 53 patients with a mean age of 64 years (55-75) received total hip arthroplasty with a porous-coated (P) or porous and BoneMaster (PBM) coated Exceed cup and ArCom E1 infused PE. Patients were followed with RSA, Hip Osteoarthritis Outcome Score (HOOS), and Euro-Qol-5-3L (EQ-5D) at 3 and 6 months, and 1-, 2-, and 5-year follow-up.

Results

At 5-year follow-up, total transla
